The large part of math today was spent working with orders operation problems. Throughout the lesson, students were presented with increasingly difficult problems and I felt that they rose to the challenge. I enjoyed getting to hear students verbalize their thought processes. This will lead into another small group activity later this week.
During our ELA block, the fifth grade continued to investigate the first story in our clean water unit. Students continued to respond to "close reading" questions and began to put together a timeline of events from the story. On Friday, we will begin out first significant writing assignment of this unit.
Finally, room 312 continued to explore the various geographic regions of early Native American society. Students have been tasked with discovering the names of specific tribes as well as tools and artifacts that each region was known for.
