Thursday, December 2

 Hi parents,

We had an awesome day today, the morning was especially productive and the students earned 3 Dojo points just for working so hard. They kept the noise level incredibly low and remained focused for much longer than I would've ever thought possible.

This morning, we worked on Math problems, and then added the finishing touches to our Norval Morrisseau-inspired art. The students also write brief paragraphs about the animal depicted by their artwork, and that's where they really impressed me with their work - typically a paragraph writing task like that would take at least a couple of days, but they somehow blasted through both rough and good copies in just over an hour. The paragraphs accompany the artwork really nicely, as you can see below!






In the afternoon, we watched an episode of Bill Nye about Heat. We're going to start a Hot and Cold Temperatures unit in science next week and Bill always provides a great overview.

We did Daily LA and worked with the Montessori multiplication materials in the afternoon.

Have a nice night,

Zac
