2nd Grade – Students finished their Surprise in the Middle pictures. Their affective lesson focused on task commitment. Tomorrow we will discuss motivators.

4th Grade – Aqueduct, today’s vocabulary word, means a large pipe or conduit for carrying water from a distant location. Mary Cassatt, known as America’s Great Impressionist, was today’s explorer. They drew the Surprise in the Middle picture for their warm-up activity. The affective lesson had students considering the number of activities in which they are involved whether too many or need to change. A few students were able to design the creature they want to construct and “sell” their picture to the class.

4th grade students will begin building a creature from which they will develop directions to build the creature. Those directions will be sent to another Edmond school who will try to build the same creature from those directions. If you have any of the following items you could provide for the students to build with, that would be tremendously helpful:
Paper plates
cardboard tubes
Cereal boxes
Paper cups
Duct tape

5th Grade - Prevail which means to be victorious; to persuade, was their vocabulary word. Ruth Wakefield, the inventor of the chocolate chip cookie, was the explorer. They also drew the Surprise in the Middle picture for their warm-up activity. The affective lesson had students design a t-shirt that represented their personalities. Our structure lesson focused on completing the Bridge Across America timeline so we could move on to another structure.
