2nd Grade - The vocabulary word for today was Shun which means to keep away from; to take pains to avoid. Clara Barton, founder of the America Red Cross, was today's ponderer. Students had to identify seven close up objects by looking at a picture and reading a clue about the item for the warm up activity. We discussed occupations and how matching careers with learning styles is important. In Crystal Pond Woods, we finished our creative writing prompts from a couple of weeks ago.
3rd Grade - Agility, which means to move quickly and easily; nimbleness of body or mind, was today's vocabulary word. Steven Spielberg, who was rejected from the University of California because of poor grades, was today's ponderer. Students tried to figure out the 20 questions Mystery Object for the warm up activity. Max the Magician had students visually thinking with tangram puzzles. The final activity was to listen and discuss chapter three of Call It Courage by Armstrong Sperry.
