Day 3, Thursday, September 17, 2015.

Our day:

Math: Day 3 of iMath from Standford University's "Week of Inspirational Math"

We learned that being a "deep mathematical thinker" is better than being fast at math.
We followed instructions to fold several shapes out of paper and practiced convincing and proving to skeptics what our shapes were.

We also looked at the dot card below and realized that math is:
-highly creative
-visual in nature
-and there are many different ways to see math and solve math problems




Several of the students saw this math dot card in different ways, here are some below:


French: with Madame Poisson

Drama: with Madame Poisson

Literacy: We began CASI today-most students used the full 100 minute block to complete their CASI reading assessment which allows me to identify students' reading comprehension and fluency, and put them in small groups for guided reading. If students achieve a level 3 or 4, they will not have to complete another CASI for the rest of the year.

DPA: We went outside and played capture the flag.
