The two fifth grades once again got together to work in smaller groups during math. Over the last few weeks, the fifth grade has been exploring fractions. Today, the small groups were tasked with investigating a real world problems that dealt with fractions. The students; discourse during this introductory lesson was positive and many of the groups laid the groundwork for solutions. It was a productive math block.
Later in the day, we began to hold writer's conferences during our ELA session. Students have been crafting a first draft of a literary essay and I was happy with most of the early results. This work will continue throughout this week.
