1st and 2nd Grade - Students finished taking their multiple intelligence inventories. If you would like to know your child's learning style, you may email me for that information. We then discussed the difference between an archaeologist and a paleontologist. The final activity was for students to act as archaeologists and "dig" in some dirt to find an artifact.
3rd Grade - These students were enjoying the Indian Heritage Day with the rest of the 3rd Grade.
4th Grade - Qualm was the word of the day. It means a feeling of illness; a disturbing feeling and sounds like Calm. Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, and Sacajawea aka The Corp of Discovery were the pilgrims today. After purchasing the Louisiana Territory from the French, President Jefferson sent Lewis and Clark to explore it. Sacajawea was a pregnant teen when the explorers hired her French-born husband to help guide the expedition. Their venture into the West opened new chapters in our nation's history. The warm-up activity was called Surprise in the Middle. This is a following directions and creativity lesson. Given simple directions, students are to draw what they hear from the verbal instructions. We spent a few minutes during our affective lesson trying to answer the question, "Will having fun make you happier than studying?" We finished the morning by getting our presentation to the G.E.T.U. finished.
