Langauge Arts - Today in Language Arts the students completed their Spelling in a caring manner. They respected the ideas and answers of others, while expressing their own insights towards the assigned task. In Grammar, the students focused on the application of /ear/, using such words as "pear, wear, tear, bear" and listening to the difference in sound and meaning. After Math, the children continued their work on A Little Princess, they are keeping open minds while comprehending the written material. All of the students have expressed a deep interest in the novel and are improving their reading fluency.
Mathematics - Math was an awesome lesson today! The students accessed their prior knowledge from the previous days in order to take risks in learning division grouping and sentences. In a whole class discussion we openly talked about how to group 12 and 18. The students all demonstrated balanced understanding of division grouping and fundamental knowledge of the material.
Science - In science we continued our understanding of "Movement" with a bouncing ball experiment and how balls bounce on different surfaces, and how different balls bounce on the same surface. The students displayed excitement and reflected wonderfully on their learned knowledge throughout the experiment.
