Inquiry into Language
Using our knowledge of what a narrative includes, students began to brainstorm ideas for their narrative about the day they woke up the size of a cinnamon heart. Remember to include
- Small details that build up the events
- Dialogue
- Figurative/ descriptive language
- Hook at the beginning-- keep the reader engaged
RECESS/ LUNCH
Jump Rope Event
We had our Jump Rope skipping event today at the Dome. Students had the opportunity to participate in variety of stations to work our their hearts and brains!
Inquiry into Math
Today we really focused on how to use the problem solving method to solve word problems involving change.
1. As a class we read through a question together, twice, then wrote down everything we knew and need to know based on the information provided.
2. Then we moved on to our plan: what steps do we need to take to solve the question provided (the what we need to know). This is written step-by-step in the order that we need to complete the steps
3. Finally, we show our work by completing each step.
When we got to "Show Your Work", students told me what we had to do and came up to the board to complete the steps. Students then copied this example into their duo tangs and continued to do the remaining questions. They are required to use this problem solving method to solve all word problems.

Valentine's Day
Students continued to work on their Valentine's narrative. Once we wrap this up, students created a Valentine's message for the student that they selected from the bin. Each student received their own personalized message from another classmate. Once everyone was done creating their message, we exchanged them with each other. Everyone was very happy with the compliments and warm messages they received from each other.
