Our day started off about 350 years ago with learning about the Historic Indians. Ask your child the difference between these groups (historic) and the other groups we've learned about (pre-historic). Lucky helped me teach Social Studies this morning too! :) In Math, used pattern blocks to create equivalent fractions but also to compare fractions. (Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and
justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.) One of the 4th grade students in Miss Cross' class interviewed Coach Urban Meyer so we watched that interview~so cool!! We also watched one of our 5th grader's Hilliard Idol performance. (They were videos that had been shown on our ADE news but since our TV is dead, we didn't get to see them.) Then, we read more about Maniac. He is feeling icky for the Beale's because they are befriending him and it seems to be causing them strife. Such a powerful message/story! In Reader's Workshop, we continued our work with author's point of view in informational text (some will be bringing them home to finish...) and finished the Ohio Studies Weekly newspapers about the Native Americans of pre-history. Our day concluded with writing and/or research.
