2nd Grade - In order to get to know students better this year, each student filled an Interest Survey.
4th Grade - There were two vocabulary words today: Oblivious which means someone who does not know or is not aware of what's happening and System which is an assemblage or combination of things or parts forming a complex or unitary whole. Today's thinker was Jane Addams who established the Hull House to have "neighbors helping neighbors." For the warm up activity, students drew a design of circles drawn with a pencil held in their fist instead of between of between their fingers. The affective lesson focused on identifying what would typically be on the mind of a fourth grader. To begin the study of Systems, students were given a fictitious character from a made up planet. Students discussed the various systems that the creature would be involved with on his home planet. Each student drew their interpretation of the creature and teammates voted for the one that best represented the book's description. Next week we will try to draw a portrait of the creature.
Welcome to Washington Irving's Enrichment blog. This blog was designed to keep parents updated as to the activities of students participating in the program.
