Our stations were great today! We learned to do a new type of convergent thinking puzzle-Cryptogram. It was challenging, but I think the kids made good progress! Our other station focused on divergent thinking with an elaboration activity about Dr. Seuss' hat. The responses were SO creative!
We continued our study of Ancient Egypt with some focused research in the Computer Lab. The kids divided into groups, listed topics for research, and assigned tasks to complete. Later they collected their notes onto posters and presented their information to the larger group. They did a great job evaluating and collaborating to get the needed information about scrolls, papyrus, hieroglyphics, and The Book of the Dead.
Our stations were great today! We learned to do a new type of convergent thinking puzzle-Cryptogram. It was challenging, but I think the kids made good progress! Our other station focused on divergent thinking with an elaboration activity about Dr. Seuss' hat. The responses were SO creative! Our algebraic thinking once again centered on Egyptian Math. The kids are almost experts on calculating using the symbols. It really causes them to focus on the careful regrouping! Our novel study is progressing! We've finished over half the book now and have gotten really deep into the mystery. We can't wait to see what happens next. The kids are using their evaluative thinking skills to answer tough questions about the characters and the book. They're also making GREAT connections as they analyze the events unfolding in the story! HW: First in Math, Cryptogram Have a super weeken
