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.

Reading Poetry with Partners



Estimating Area

Here is an activity we did to figure out how to estimate area.  We love it when we can color and learn at the same time!!!

Magnets

In team 184 we go tour new Journey books and we are reading about magnets.  We learned about how magnets stick to things.  We took magnets around the room to see what they might stick to.  Today in team 184 we learned about how does electricmagnetes stick to things. 

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.

Yellow Packet to Practice Editing

                       MW
 

                      We live in the sewers

                         and we are cold
                         blooded animals
                         GM

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.
