This morning we worked on showing more ways to represent numbers. Today, we focused on expanded form and discussed the relationship with Base 10 blocks and standard form. There is no Math homework this weekend, as I am collecting the workbooks to take another look at the students work.
After Math, we played a version of "Snap, Crackle, Pop" in the gym. The students had to work together to make teams, by lining up by height, and to play the game as well.
In Language, we continued to explore the concept of making connections and we read a story called "The Nest." Today, the students answered multiple choice questions about the text, listed below. We discussed strategies for selecting the correct response.
Next week, we will answer short answer questions about the text and focus on making connections to concepts in the story.
This afternoon, we continued to work on our structures in Science. The work was a little bit messy at times, but the students continued to display strong collaboration and problem solving skills. Finally, we discussed our personal prayer experiences, talking about how and why we pray in Religion.
Have a great weekend.
Mr. Skinner
