We made it to WINTER BREAK! Yeah! Thanks so much for all of the wonderful presents:) I feel so loved!
HOMEWORK over winter break: The students were asking me what they should work on over break. Here are some suggestions. This isn't mandatory, but suggestions:
Reading daily:) Yup, read, read, read:)
Math: IXL account. If your kiddo has lost their login sheet and password, just email me and I will get that to you.
Inquiry: Our topic is "What is the story of the Earth?"
Our six inquiry questions our students chose are:
What is the story of the Titanic?
What is the story of the Redwood National Forest?
What is the story of underwater volcanoes/the deep sea?
What is the story of fossils?
What is the story of glaciers?
What is the story of caves and volcanoes?
We have been having quite a few news reports and plays over the past few inquiry presentations. I am hoping they choose to make models, diagrams, maps, etc w this inquiry question. I think they have a good base for what they are researching. When we get back, that will be week 3. This is where they really need to decide on how they will present, and get their materials and specific roles taken care of. Week 4 is when we present.
