Week 22 - 23 (January 30 - February 10)
Area
We are continuing to work hard at finding the area of irregular shapes. I must say, the kids are getting much better at this. They are finally understanding ways to break apart these shapes in order to find the area of the entire shape.
Expert Projects
After another month of hard work on their expert projects, the kids presented them to the class. The kids are getting much better at finding their information and also presenting. Their presentation voice and body language are becoming much more audience friendly!
Standardized Writing
We have been preparing for our district writing assessment. We've worked on a few prompts and also looked at some exemplars to help prepare the kids and give them a visual of what a passing score should look and sound like. The kids have really taken pride in assessing their own writing and working to improve it!
Working on editing!
Biomes and Food Chains
I believe that this has been the most fun we've had working on a unit of study! The kids have really enjoyed researching the different biomes and taking a closer look at the animals that live there and have to adapt to their environment.
