Hi parents,
We had a great day today. In the morning, students worked on their book reports, food chain projects, and books in boxes. We've got several big projects on the go right now which is awesome for a Montessori work period. The students are showing their time management skills like crazy - they had two hours this morning to spend working on these three big tasks, and for the most part, they're actually getting completed!
We added another level to the Food Chain project. Today, the students designed a herbivore that was well-adapated to eat the plant they'd created yesterday. This herbivore also had to be able to survive in the region it lived in, and to have at least one defensive adaptation to protect it from predators.
In math, we've been learning about fractions. Today we used the fraction tower material to show how fractions with larger denominators represented smaller pieces. We did some fraction drawing challenges too, including splitting an equilateral triangle into four equal pieces.
Have a nice day,
Zac
