Students looked at the causes and effects of the Tea Act and the Boston Tea Party during social studies today. The class had a lively discussion and I was impressed with the level of background knowledge that students are bringing to the lessons.
During reading today, students focused in on unanswered questions that Number the Stars left in the reader's minds. Students came up with some answers to these questions and worked in small groups to share their answers.
