Hello all! Today is Monday, May 09, 2011. This morning, we came in and went through our morning routine. At 9:05, we headed down to P.E. When we were all in our squad spots, we voted to either play Frisbee Golf outside, or do the timed run inside. I think you know which we voted to do. We got a score sheet, a marker, and a Frisbee, and lined up with a partner. We headed out to the lower field and ran to the end and back as a warm up, and then the P.E. teacher set up some hula hoops with numbers hung up on them. We then flew the Frisbees into the hoops in the least amount of throws. Then we came back to class and finished our morning math. Then we did math. First we did an Activote test on area, perimeter, and volume. Then we were divided up into two groups, and then the student teacher took one group out into the shared space. The group that remained in the classroom had to find the dimensions of an NBA basketball court for Eminem. We had to find the area of the key, the cost of a shiny material for the key, the perimeter and the cost of 14k gold for trim, the amount of concrete that would be laid down one foot deep, and the material that covers the remainder of the court. Then we had break. After break, we returned to our groups and continued working. Then we went out to recess.
When we came back from lunch, we did science. We looked at white light and prisms. It turns out that white light is actually a combination of colors. Then we read a chapter of The Giver, and filled out our predictions. Then we performed our Chaos in the Canyon skits. Two groups tied for first place at 91 miles. Then we did PSV, wrote down homework, and left. Here’s your homework:
