Hi parents,
We had a pretty good day today. We started learning about measurement, and talked about millimetres, centimetres, and metres. The students brainstormed some approximate ways of thinking of each unit. For example, "a metre is about the armspan of an 8 year old", "a centimetre is about the width of your pink", "a millimetre is about the width of a pencil line".
We did some regular journal writing, where students had the option to write about their weekends, or create 'third person' paragraphs about themselves.
In the afternoon, we had Music, Daily LA, and Spelling Practice.
Friday, January 19 - "Folding Friday"
This Friday, we're going to be delving into some Montessori Practical Life Skills, and the students will be learning how to effectively fold clothing. Each student is asked to bring an additional shirt, pair of pants, sweater, and pair of socks. I will send a school messenger about this as well.
Have a nice night,
Zac
