It's only period 2...but here is my best guess on what will happen today...
Period 1 - Trying to solve the pentomino puzzle for Red Light...still no success. Our random act of kindness is to 'share a toy with someone else'. I'm not sure if we'll be able to execute that act here at school....Then we did some independent/guided reading.
Period 2 -Mrs. Smith to teach science.
Period 3 -we're going to do our writer's workshop. Today's mini lesson will be about creating fictional characters that the readers will care about.
Period 4 -we'll be doing math. We'll begin with another number talk, then we'll be looking at tessellations, first by using pentominoes, then by creating our own.
Period 5 and 6 I have devoted to art (even though many STILL haven't finished last weeks art...). Today we'll be sticking with MC Escher and his tessellation work. We're going to attempt to create our own...like in this video:
