The kids were really excited to see a picture of a REAL groundhog and to compare the results to their prediction.

Then, students recorded themselves describing their shapes using related vocabulary. They also wrote out the same explanation on the screen. -JS]]> 2017-02-03 18:35:43 UTC https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151529461 Cook's Connections https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151535050 My goal is to make a connections with our 'top 40' high achieving ]]> 2017-02-03 18:49:58 UTC https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151535050 A.R. tests https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151549937 We read and took A.R. tests. Each student had a goal of seven A.R. tests. We didn't accomplish our goal because we ran out of time. Students also wrote book buzzes along the way. It was a fun experience for the students because they were being challenge. The goal was to get a 70% or higher.

AB]]> 2017-02-03 19:39:12 UTC https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151551233 I called Darla Hakanson, the counselor at Carson, and found out about the Safe Spot she is implementing in each classroom at Carson. Each teacher will have a bin filled with putty, mazes, stress balls, a Discovery Disc, sand timer, and other quiet things to fidget with. When students need to calm down they may go to the Safe Spot. Darla received a $3,000 grant from the Decatur Education Foundation to purchase the materials. I will check back with her soon to find out how effective it is.

This prompted many valuable  conversations about ages/stages and abilities. There was a great deal of vocabulary emphasized! Good times!]]> 2017-02-03 19:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151556913 We counted out 100 pennies, and 100 snap cubes. First students had to predict which one would be longer when laid out. Then, working as a group, they had to line up the 100 pennies, and connect the 100 snap cubes, and check their prediction. This integrated their past unit of money, and their current unit of finding length. -AD https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151558642 2017-02-03 20:07:10 UTC https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151558642 We counted 100 beads and seperated the beads by color into groups of ten. When all 100 beads were separated accordingly we skip counted to 100 and placed the beads by color on a necklace. Students were instructed to tell anyone who asked about the necklace why we separated them like we did which brought up some very good vocabulary! https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151561790 TH

Each class will read directions to the other via Skype and see how our pictures turn out. Hopefully this will open the door for future activities. jami_leonard1 https://padlet.com/melonie_christian/w6nqeoxlw3so/wish/151583781

We got to 100 really fast. However, I was really curious about Padlet. I didn't know much about it, but Mrs. Christian came in and showed us how to create a padlet. It was super easy and the kids learned how to post online. The padlet allows you to create a QR code and that makes it easier for the kids to post. This first experience went so well that I created another padlet and I found out how to post pictures and videos on the padlet. I can't wait to show kids how to create their own padlets for the class.
