Fifth Grade Update - Dec. 1

A normal day...

Yes, we finally returned to a normal day, at least the schedule was normal.  We did our regular brain work then some problem solving.  We rounded out the day with the first four events for our Super Humans.  This was so much fun.  The students were given calamities and then given 5 minutes or less to figure out how their Super Human was going to survive.  After describing each of the Super Humans we dove right into the calamities.  They children had fun, but at the same time were involved in some pretty incredible critical thinking. 

Next week we'll continue with more calamities, the first of which is how is the Super Human, as quarterback for the Rams, going to help save the team that is about to loose the Super Bowl.

Book orders came home last week and are available on line at www.scholastic.com/bookclubs.  Check out the earlier entry for details on logging in and placing your order.
