Unit Study:
We learned about the last of the six Global Goals we're focusing on: Good Health and Wellbeing. We watch a couple of short videos about nutrition for kids, revising the food system, and immunizations for children around the world. The kids continued their research. Please check Seesaw for a Checklist of what is expected for the Model United Nations Finale, which will be in Target on MONDAY, December 7th. (We're switching Target days that week only.)
Algebraic Thinking:
We finished off our review of Level 1 for Hands On Equations. The kids and I are excited to get started on Level 2, where they get to use the white pawns!
Novel Study:
We read and read and read today! The kids were thrilled that we didn't stop until we absolutely had to! The story is SO good, and the kids are completely hooked! We are trying our best to finish the book by the end of the semester. I know we can do it!
Affective Thinking:
We discussed how to turn Fixed Mindset thoughts into Growth Mindset ideas. They did a fantastic job with this. Then, they thought of a strategy to use next time they face a tough situation. We'll revisit those strategies next time.
HW: Nothing new, just finish up any incomplete work on Seesaw.
Enjoy your Thanksgiving Break!
