Harlem Shake Brain Break

Our brain break from today was doing the Harlem Shake dance!

 

Friday Update 3/15

This Friday update will contain pictures from the past 2 weeks! We have been keeping busy in the classroom,

 

Here are some shots of vocab theatre, the kids sure know how to get creative, I encourage them to use no words- charades- like game.

 

 In science we are learning about conductive and convective heat, insulation and radiation. The kids assignment here in this picture was to research an animal that lives in cold weather, and write 6 facts about how they stay insulated in the cold.

DWP Bingo winners!

The kids were in charge of making a "Wordle" or collage of "Things that use heat"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The kids learned how to make a double bar graph. I asked them to first estimate how many doors they had in their house, and then they had to go home and count. The 2 bars are the estimated amount and the actual amount.

 After learning Mean, Median, Mode, and Range, I asked them to pick a city and find the weather of the week. They then had to apply it to math and find the MMM&R.

 

 After learning about conductive heat, Miss Koch had a surprise up her sleeve and made pancakes to prove it! I did share them, as long as they could tell me the heat process that was happening! :)

 

Dates to mark in your calendar.

3/20 Science Test over Heat
3/21 Math test over graphs, Mean, Median, Mode, Range
3/27 Early Dismissal
3/27-3/1 NO SCHOOL spring break

 

Have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

Reminders

-Quick things about science fair-

 

-They will need to have a printed copy of their research for peer editing by Monday 1/28. (they can also print it off at school today) We will use some of our class time giving positive feedback.

 

-Experiment this weekend! Results and Conclusion are due Tuesday.

Results- What happened in the experiment?

Conclusion- Does the results agree or disagree with your hypothesis? What would you do differently if you conducted the experiment again?

 

-We will work on the Bibliography in class next week.

 

-Table/Charts/Surveys due next Friday 2/1

 

 

Mark your calenders for Tuesday, MARCH 5. The students will have to be at science fair from 5pm-6pm.

This is mandatory to attend. If you have any conflicts please e-mail me:
