Morning Work


Every morning we have morning work on the board to do.  Sometimes it tells us morning work on the chalkboard (rarely), but sometimes nothing is on the board, or chalkboard,  so either we just read, write, or draw, or the morning work is already is on our desk. So that's our morning work goes!

Poem

In Team 184 we recorded the poem I Love the Look of Words. It is by: Maya Angelou. It goes like this. Popcorn leaps, popping from the floor of a hot black skillet and into my mouth. Black Words leap, snapping from the white page. Rushing into my eyes sliding into my brain which gobbles them the way my tongue and teeth chomp the buttered popcorn. When I have stop reading ideas from the word stay stuck in my mind, like the sweet smell of butter perfuming my fingers long after the popcorn is finished. I love the book and the look of words the weight of ideas that popped into my mind I love the tracks of new thinking in my mind. THE END.

Class Dojo

We are now starting Class Dojo.  It is something that we do for doing better for our reactions, so Mrs.Kaufman has the class iPad with it on. She watches us while we are a class together, and if she sees us do something right she ads a point to our Class Dojo avatar.  If she sees us do something wrong she takes one away. The class DOJO is a good way to be better students.

when you lose too many points you go in to the negatives.

Poem

In team 184 we are doing poems.
Here are some I did.
                                    Kids learing because they 
                            want to learn about things they
                    haven't. Kids jumping up and down to 
                 get their hypernness out of them.
          They like  to do fun things but they need
    to earn it to do it.Kids need to be nice to play
 and earn to have a free time with their friends.
We think we think we learn we learn.

Free Rice

Last week Team 184 played Free Rice for our PAT time.  We got to do math, vocabulary, and world flags.  Each time we got one right, we would get ten grains of rice to give another kid that doesn't have food.  Each time we got 1,000 grains of rice, we would add it on the chalkboard and we got 4,000 grains of rice!


                       It was a lot of fun!

Geometry Art

Our class worked on a three step geometry art project.  

First we traced shapes with cutouts.

Then we colored them with markers.

After that we sprayed water on the picture and the water made the markers bleed.

Then we waited for it to dry.  

Finally we traced the parts that bled with sharpies.

Airplane Inquiry

Team 184 made airplanes for science

We got to fly them in the class.  Mrs.Kaufman helped us measure where our airplanes landed. 

We changed one thing on the airplane to see if it would go further.  We were learning about variables. 

We also went outside and we got into a big group and we threw them up in the air. Then we got spread out and threw them up in the air.

It was a lot of fun. When we walked back in the class some kids said that was a BLAST.
