So, in math, our 4th grade students are doing so well with the basics of the units-they understand but still need depth. Mr. Smith and I came up with this idea for a real-world project-based learning idea and began it today. We were super excited and so were they!! I'm not going to tell you what it is-ask your kiddo! :)
After special, in Counting by 7's, Willow ran away to the library where she hid and slept. Mr. Dell Duke was asked to help find her and he immediately went to Mai who knew where to look. It was at this time that Pattie, Mai's mom, decided to take Willow in until they can find a better placement for her. Willow, once vibrant, is now very sullen (and hard to read.) We also read and met on our government articles, discussed our -dict root doodle note and continued writing our "Nothing Ever Happens on ___" story before reading or visiting the library. Stories are due tomorrow...is your kiddo finished or almost finished?? As historians, Mrs. Tanner worked with the five themes of geography while in my room, we continued learning about the early people of Ohio. 5th grade math was full of practicing division with decimals. Our day concluded with playing the kahoots the students made last week for homework. (Well 13 of them made.)
Do you ever wonder what a school day in the life of your child looks like? Are you frustrated with the shoulder shrug you receive when asking about their day? Well, wonder no more! Read my daily blog so that you can ask more detailed questions and know more about your child's school life!
