Create some of your own questions and try to figure it out!
We practiced the S.A.D writing technique today to make sure that our instructional writing is as clear as possible.
Students brainstormed something that they would like to teach and began working on a materials list. We also started brainstorming all the specific steps to their tasks.
We reviewed multiplication and visualized them in 3 main ways. Students were asked to work on some short multiplication practice questions using one of the 3 visualization strategies. See below
We began talking about issues that all 3 governments worked on. First, we brainstormed many “issues” that are out there in our country, province, and city. We narrowed them down to 7-8 main issues and then prioritized them based on their importance.
We agreed that all issues were important and soon realized that our individual opinions and priorities were different. We used these priorities to form our political parties.
Today, we spent our social studies period brainstorming and discussing our issues. We only filled out our priority number and have not started the researching and stating our opinions on these issues.
PROJECT – Forming a Political Party
We worked on starting our main writing unit this term. We will focus on procedural writing, also known as HOW-TO writing.
I did a demonstration on how to brush my teeth using students’ initial instructions. It did not go well!
Watch this video to see why procedural writing is important!
Once done, take a look at the worksheet and begin revising your initial instructions. I will be bringing in my toothbrush, toothpaste, and cup next week and will once again, try to use your instructions to brush my teeth… live… in front of you.
We went over the numbers 1-15 today.
Check out the video for pronunciation.
For the past two days, we read the book Saturdays and Teacakes. We told the story using only words and did not show the pictures. Each student was assigned one page to visualize.
Great visualizers…
If you weren’t here, please try to read the story ahead of time and when you return, I will let you know which page you are responsible for. This is a class wide project, so I expect your absolute best to make this a success!
