Joy Pod
Math: Ask your child how they answered our math question today:
"There
are seven shirts hanging on a clothesline. Some are white and some are blue.
There are no
other colours.
How many of each colour shirt might there be?"
We have been working with students on showing different ways to organize their thinking using charts, pictures and/or equations. We will continue our focus on "Number Sense" tomorrow.
Inquiry: Today students gathered to learn some basic acting skills and Create a Tableau on play. Students pretended to play
basketball or play a board game or eat ice cream. Students are learning that the viewer should be able to
figure out what a student is doing using only actions (not talking).
Using the design process, students will begin to plan and create "play" through a variety of mediums (playdoh, wire/tinfoil, photography, sketching). This will help us connect to our overarching question, "How Play Connects Us?"
