Our day, ebbed & flowed, but not in that relaxing, peaceful creek sort of way... it was bit more like Walmart on Black Friday... Okay, maybe not that bad, but it was definitely busy and hectic!
Other students worked on building out the features on their animal mask. Most had time to finish the final layer of papier-mâché.
Between doing these tasks, the students filled in a table with information about their own research animal and that of eight other classmates' animals. The information for the table included the animal's length, weight, life span etc. Next week, we will use calculators to find common units of measurement. The students will then learn to create a bar graph online, to compare a measurable aspect of the animals.
The students also had time to work at their Exploratory center tasks. Ask your child about their current task.
The students ended their day with Senora Gates' Spanish lesson. Today, they had an opportunity to use some of their vocabulary words to create complex sentences. They also practiced their numbers 1-30 in a timed "speed" game.
Have a great week!
