Only 2 periods in so far...but this is what we've done, and what we're going to do!
Period 1 we wrote down our computer log in information 10 times! Trying to lock it into our brains. Then we read some Wayside School. After the class smashed their independent stamina reading record time. We read for 14 minutes without losing focus...and the best part, we were allowed to read anywhere we wanted in the classroom!
Period 2 they went to Mr. Woolley for Health, I believe!
Period 3 we're going to have some writing time. We're working on generating ideas. We'll be looking at some strong emotions (happy, sad, scared, angry) and jotting down some memories we have with those moments.
Period 4 we have math. We're going play a game called 'what's my number?'. They'll use numbers from their lives (e.g., how many pets do you have?) and as a class we'll try and guess what the number actually represents.
Period 5 I'm hoping to use the chromebooks for the first time. We'll log in, and try and play math prodigy.
Period 6 I'm leaving open (if we can sneak the computers for another period, we just may). We may also go outside to play a game of SPUD...we'll see!
Thanks for an amazing first week. I hope everyone has a terrific weekend.
