Morning Meeting, wellness/personal growth

Students have taken on lots of responsibility lately with all of the projects we have been doing. For the Agriculture Fair project, 4 groups were formed, each with a team leader who then assigned roles and monitored the groups progress. Often a student would be responsible for a particular part, and not completing that part meant the group's project wouldn't be complete. They have really been growing in so many ways!

Math

We began our short unit on Angles and we are cruising along so far! They seem to be picking up the terminology and rules quickly. This week we covered vocabulary, angle identification and measuring, as well as drawing angles and measuring them.

English

Learned about and wrote movie reviews!
Sentence Stalking
Continued our read-aloud (The Golden Bull)
Root word quiz

Science

Special visit with Tech teacher Mr. Krigger to learn about drones and attempt to fly a few!
Wrapped up the Agriculture Fair group projects, during down time next week we will do the art for the presentation board to go in the booth
More science Fair talk, research, and report writing. Most are well on their way with the report sections of materials, procedures, hypothesis, question, background/research.
