Hello!
We did it! We made it to Spring break. We spent this week learning a couple new skills for after the break.
In math we continues practicing our addition and subtraction with money. We played The Price is Right, where students started with $1000, then made estimated guesses on store items, found the difference between the real price, and subtracted the difference from their total money. It took a couple of rounds, but most students got the concept. We went through 18 items, then showcase showdown. By the end, half the class was in the negative, with three students still having more than $400.
We.finished our Candidate posters
We learned how to create a Google slides presentation. We first made one about unicorns as a class, where I guided students through the basic steps. Then they all got to choose their own topics and make their own. They were pretty good for first time projects.
On Friday we had our boardgame day. Students earned a games day through the class points. We played Scategories, sushi go, point salad, Saboteur, battle sheep, Catan, trash pandas, stupify, and 5 minute dungeon. It was a little chaotic, but good fun.
On Friday students took home their work folder. Please try to get it back when we return. Also dont forget about the young entrepreneur project, students should be working on finishing their products (unless they have an expiry date).
Have a good break and see you in a couple of weeks
