The 5th Grade group that normally meets on Wednesday came to class this morning because they were on a field trip yesterday.
5th Grade - Today's learning started with Diaphanous, the vocabulary word, which means translucent, transparent.The explorer was Tom Adams an inventor. Tom's friend, Santa Anna, suggested he try inventing with chicle from Mexico. When that failed, he tried chewing it and invented chewing gum. A Surprise in the Middle drawing was today's warm up activity. The focus of the affective lesson was to have the students identify what was important to themselves. We reviewed the results of the insulated cup project then discussed ways to improve upon their designs. The final activity was to discover different items we have as a result of cultural borrowing.
