This week was Computer Science Education Week so we participated in Hour of Code! I participated too and earned my certificate which I projected proudly! I used code.org and completed a dance party~so fun! You should try it some time. Others used Tynker and we tried a new site using Python code, however, it wasn't compatible with our ipads. All in all, we had fun and learned another life skill.
After special, in meeting, we shared where we would go if we could go anywhere in the world-most of us chose warm and sunny places-and then played Guess my Number with the students choosing numbers to have each other guess using yes and no questions. Then, we continued writing our Harris Burdick stories. We spent time reading and writing-it is always nice to have time to just read and to just write. In Science/Social Studies time, 4th grade students investigated natural insulators by making blubber gloves while 5th grade kiddos had SciFri with a fun quiz game. In Math, 4th graders took a measurement pre-test and worked to solve a pretty difficult conversion problem. 5th graders kept working to solve their fraction word problems.
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!
