Phew! What a busy day! We started our day doing some drumming for music class. This is usually in the afternoon but Mr. A had a conflict so we switched it to the morning time.
In reading today, we read aloud a story. In 6S, it was The Tale of 3 Ralphs (which we will read tomorrow in 6F) and in 6F it was Tacky the Penguin (which 6S will hear tomorrow). We discussed the importance of each story and how it applied to reading class. Next, we saw the rubric for how I am grading the reading logs and vocab. finds. I then did a Power Point Presentation on the use of the Can It Be for Me? strategy to locate a book. Students took notes.
In writing, we worked on rough drafts of our Graphs of Life. We learned about how to plot points on a line graph. We will do final drafts in class on Monday.
During 6F science, we did our first lab today. This is the Brain Body Reaction Time Lab. Students worked in partners to see how quickly their brains responded to visual, auditory and kinesthetic cues by dropping a ruler. Students need to answer questions as a conclusion for this lab. I will go over these questions in more depth tomorrow.
