Comparing and Contrasting

Last week we looked closely at comparing and contrasting and had lots of modeled, group, and individual practice. Here is one of our projects from last week and a few that I really enjoyed grading.

Here is the assignment that they see on Google Classroom. We always come to the carpet to discuss assignments before they are given. All questions are answered and then they complete them during stations during the week and morning work time. 


The attachments were extras to help them with their project if they needed. 

The rubric......

Here is some of the work turned in. They had a great time working on these projects! I enjoyed hearing their discussions!!!





      


Enjoy your week!!!

These comments along with 24 others made my heart melt! What teacher would not want to hear so many enthusiastic thoughts about an assignment? They had a great time researching and learning about the contributions of Greece.

ALL the projects completed were impressive! Here are just a few peeks!






























Remember to check Google Classroom to see your child's projects!


 Have a safe, warm weekend!

New Year Goals

Welcome back! This week we discussed a lot about goals. We thought of goals for school, home, health, and friendships. I always stress to them that they should try their best and if they are doing the best the can, I will always be happy with them. I think some of the kids were very had on themselves and set really high expectations. I tried to talk to all of them about setting realistic goals. After we brainstormed as a class, we set out to create our own. Students wrote thier goals and then published them to Chatterpix. They had a great time doing it and it allowed us to get some artwork in as well!
