I want to compliment all of 5B for their patience, hard work and effort put into their Reading MAPs tests today. I'd say almost everyone showed progress, which is fantastic! And some of you improved so much that I would have thought it was a SPRING score:) You go! Be sure to share those post-it with your progress!
At our teacher meetings this afternoon, we made some great plans for our S.T.E.A.M Day next Friday, February, 14! We are excited to see what kind of problem solvers you will be in another real-world situation! What I saw today from all groups was excellent. It was great to see that 1 of the groups did, in fact, (that's a fact, Jack!) change the life of Stuffy the Stuffed Animal and gave him a safe Tower of Power!
However, every group showed that their problem solving skills could make a difference in the life of someone (or something). Everyone today made their index cards into TECHNOLOGY! Now, that's engineering.
Keep that creative thinking, common sense about use of materials and problem-solving awake for next week's task!
That's all I will share for tonight. I am going to give you 1 job to do to prove you checked the blog tonight. It is a math problem (since we had no math today).
Solve this problem - (if you need to ask someone for help, please do!) Turn this mixed number (5 2/3) into an improper fraction! I know the group I'm working with should be able to do this, so hopefully it's not a brain buster!
Write it down somewhere and hold onto it until AFTER we do the pledge. I'll share the correct answer to everyone then:)
We just might make a "normal" week! Yippee!
