Algebraic Thinking:
Some of our kids continued with our Hands On Equations lessons. Our beginners are progressing through the foundational lessons with others moving on to more complex concepts. Our experienced algebra students worked on Word Problems, which are a big challenge because the students have to translate the meaning to an equation and then solve it. It was a bit of a bumpy road today, so we'll continue slowly working on applying these concepts.
Stations:
We continued our work from last week. Our convergent thinking skills got a workout with a logic puzzle. The February F2OE challenged our creative thinking with wonderfully divergent solutions!
Affective Skills:
We continued our "Dreams" work with poems and sketches of our art to go with our poems. I can't wait to see how the kids put the two together next week.
We continued our Mindfulness Practice with "5 Minutes of Mindful Breathing".
Novel Study:
We continued our novel, and found out more about improv through the characters in our book. The kids got a chance to try out an improv game called "Superheroes". They really liked it.
Please check your child's Assignment Sheet in the Target Folder for upcoming Target Day switches. We've had to swap a few days because of Performing Arts programs and Field Trips coming up in March and April.
