Thank you for sharing this piece by Monet! |
In Math, students made equations that equaled 63 (ex. 50+6+4+3=63). We focused on making groups of ten as an addition strategy. Students also worked on addition practice before their spelling pre-test.
Students proofread and edited their summary about Claude Monet. Then I read aloud from our Survivor novel while students worked on their Monet art. Today students made their backgrounds for their Monet-inspired piece. They look incredible so far. Tomorrow they will work on the mid-ground and next week will finish with the foreground. The end result will look 3-D and similar to Monet’s “Water Lilies and Japanese Bridge.”
A big thank you to K. and her mom who brought in a print of Monet’s art to share with the class. It was interesting to compare this piece to the water lilies one we’ve been analyzing, and note the similarities and differences.

After lunch was a library book exchange, silent reading, and the start of our Sound and Light unit in Science. Today, as a class, we brainstormed and made a web about natural and man-made sources of light. Students were very keen about the topic and came up with interesting answers (glowworms, lightning, etc). After Science, we went to the gym for Basketball. Students practiced dribbling in a keep away game with a partner, practiced ball handling tricks, and finished with dribbling relay races.
