Hi parents,
We had an off day today but it ended well.
In the morning, we had our spelling quiz, and then moved on to what I thought would be a fun social studies activity, in which the students worked in groups to build landscapes that we've been studying. Unfortunately there was a lot of arguing and fighting. The class ended up losing all of their table points.
We had some good discussions about group work, and compromise, and the students had follow-up conversations and made sure everyone in the group felt like they mattered, and we got some pretty awesome work done eventually. You can see it in our main display case!
In math, we explored 'equivalent fractions'. We learned that you can make equivalent versions of any fraction by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same value.
I hope you all have a great long weekend!
Zac
