Algebraic Thinking:
We reached our goal of reviewing previous Hands On Equations lessons with excellent mastery! We've built on that by applying the knowledge to the corresponding word problems. That is great progress! Double sessions are paying off!
Convergent thinking:
We tried a new puzzle called "Quizzlers". This is a puzzle based on a quote from a famous person. The kids have to use convergent thinking and knowledge of words and phrases to solve the puzzle. They did very well!
Focus Study-Games
The kids finished their research about games and created a plan for presenting their information to the group. They will collaborate to create one poster and share their knowledge with the other groups.
We also had a great time participating in our own mini "Gollywhopper Games" in the computer lab. The kids had a mini challenge with four questions about the novel. Correct answers will be revealed on Edmodo.
Affective:
We practiced our mindfulness with this video: Mindful Listening
