Happy Pi Day! (and my Adison's birthday!) Our morning questions today was, "What is your favorite kind of pie?" and surprisingly, a few kiddos don't like pie, at all! We worked on our M4T and Ohio Dailies (which now I can tell they are actually completing them because they are starting to talk about facts they are learning!). In our morning meeting, we shared about our evenings and then played, "Laughing Bandana." Math Workshop was all about Pi! We brought in circular snacks but before we ate them, we read, Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi. This story taught us, in a punny way, how to find pi by measuring the circumference and diameter of circles. So, we measured our circular foods and then ate them, after they helped us find pi! What did your kiddo eat for their circular snack today, other than the cookie I gave them?! Today was Music, lunch and indoor recess and then we read a little bit more from The Fourteenth Goldfish and found out that this cranky 13-year old truly IS her grandfather! He has found a way to regenerate senescence (we learned what these science terms meant...) While half of us read independently, the other half worked on a padlet helping to explain the above terms-then switched. https://padlet.com/heather_lambrig/the14thgoldfish1 In Reader's Workshop, we got our new StoryWorks and read the debate article about allowing gum chewing in school. Then, they formed their opinion and wrote their "argument" on a discussion thread in Canvas. We continued revising and editing our narratives and then finished brainstorming steps needed for us to become a "state."
