Our first task was to read about our Weighty Word for this week- "Paradox". Then the kids worked on creating their visual images for their words using Brittannica Image Quest and Word Online.
Convergent thinking:
We were very lucky to have a visit from Kids' Chess today. They do a fantastic job of teaching kids the basics of chess. The kids are grouped by prior experience and given the opportunity to use the new moves they just learned in mini games. It was a HUGE hit!
Unit Study:
The kids worked on a Code.org lesson to learn more about using Loops in programs. They had a chance to practice this strategy in the lesson.
Novel Study:
We read a bit more of our book, and found out a bit more about some mysterious things going on in the book.
HW: "I Wonder" Project
Until next time,
