It was lovely to see folks this morning, with snowflakes and smiles on their faces! We were missing 5 students, so we had quite an intimate-sized group.
In PE, students helped to put the mats out for the tumbling unit for the whole school, with lots of muscle and teamwork involved.
We reviewed our Fractions test, making corrections and doing some remedial work. Some students worked in small groups with adults. Several students were assigned instructional videos to watch and extra practice to follow on Learn Zillion, through Edmodo. Others worked on the Kahn Academy website to get some extension work right at their level.
We chose Survival-themed books for our next book project, which will be creating a survival kit for the main character(s) of the book. Students should have 2 weeks to finish their books before beginning their project, which is due at the end of the month. Project details will be posted and come home soon.
We took some time for students to respond to each other's blog posts today. Students also worked on grammar through an Edmodo app called No Red Lines. The program creates sentences to correct based on students' interests. We are working on subject/verb agreement.
At the end of the day we shared some sad news. Students are bringing home an informational letter to share with families, and we will talk together as a class community again the next time we see each other.
