RECESS/ LUNCH

Inquiry into Math
Students completed an angles quiz. Then they explored quadrilaterals by examining a variety of quadrilaterals. They used their rulers to measure the length of all sides in each quadrilaterals, along with measuring all angles in the quadrilateral and drawing diagonals. Students were then expected to make connections among the quadrilaterals provided to draw some conclusions about the attributes that make up quadrilaterals. They worked on this is their table groups. 

Art's Night rehearsal
We worked with a choreographer to create our Art's Night performance dance. The students did a fantastic job and I cannot wait to see the final product!
