Wow – can you believe it’s February? This school year is certainly flying by, and this week has been one of the fastest!
Since I’m a bit behind on daily blogging, here is the rundown on what the classes have been doing this week:
1st grade finished their continent stations. Next class, they will be meeting their mystery Valentine partners, and they will begin studying the countries they chose to research.
2nd grade worked more on empathy and multiple perspectives by pretending they were the fictional clients for whom they are designing structures. Then they did second drafts of their designs.
3rd grade finished Fish in a Tree, and worked more on their Tinkercad tutorials for 3d design.
4th and 5th grade both analyzed song playlists for their respective novels to choose the songs that best represented the books. They gave supporting evidence using the song lyrics and passages from the books. (Tuck Everlasting and The Giver)
There will be no GT classes February 7th-9th as I will be attending a technology conference in Austin.
