Algebraic Thinking:
We stretched our math thinking and critical thinking to solve a variety of problems. Love to see the different strategies kids use to figure out these challenging problems!
Unit Study:
The kids dove right into their Cardboard Creations today! It's wonderful to see the pure joy as they are creating their visions! They even ask me if we can skip recess so they can keep building! We will have two more building sessions before we share our games.
Stations:
We stretched our convergent thinking with a choice of Logic Puzzles. The kids also created a Comic based on our novel using Conversation Hearts as the dialog. The results were funny and SOOO creative!
Novel Study:
We read a bit more of our book. The kids also used their critical and evaluative thinking to determine what made part of the chapter funny.
Affective Skills:
We learned more about Active Listening today. They know what it looks like and what it doesn't look like. Now, the trick is to practice it more! We continued our Mindfulness Practice with some peaceful music.
Hope you had a wonderful February Break!
