This week, students have their first spelling group word list. Students are responsible for learning all of the words on the list. They will be tested on Friday on a randomly selected ten words. Students now have their nightly spelling homework written out in a chart that is glued into the back of their agenda books. Spelling homework will be consistent from week to week. Students will need a dictionary or online resource on a weekly basis to complete the homework. We'll also be doing activities to practice the words in class.
This week in science, students used classroom materials to design a way to make an object (a bouncy ball) change motion. Student groups were assigned different changes in motion (direction, speed, stop, start) and worked together collaboratively to come up with a way to demonstrate this change to the class. Below are pictures of the students working on the designs:
