Affective Skills:
We examined and discussed ideas about fairness. In the end, we decided that there are different kids of fairness.
We continued our Mindfulness Practice with "Mindfulness for Children".
Algebraic Thinking:
We worked hard on a variety of math problems using our critical thinking and math strategies. The kids love to collaborate and I enjoy hearing their debates about solutions! Great math talk!
Unit Study:
We continued our forensic stations with the "Ice Cube Test". The kids determined the water in the ice cube tray was not the same pH as tap water, which means it was tampered with!
Stations:
The kids used their convergent thinking to solve a math Versatile activity. They also created another visual vocabulary for either letter N or O from our Weighty Word book. The finished products are getting so accurate and meaningful! The kids also enjoyed collaborating on solving some jigsaw puzzles. They did well working together!
Novel Study:
We finished three chapters in our mystery. Oh my goodness, it's getting very suspensful! We can't wait to find out what the old iron key is for!
Until next time,
Dr. Kraeger
