The students continued to collect data concerning zoos today. Students spent one more day completing another task on the road to their mini-research paper. I continue to be impressed with the passion and intelligent discussion that I find emanating from all corners of the room during this ELA work. I look forward to working with the students tomorrow, as they begin their writing.
Earlier in the school day, the fifth graders began to work with a set of challenging land section fraction problems. This lesson will require the students to add and subtract fractions and to fall back on the knowledge that has been accumulated over the last few weeks. This work will continue into tomorrow.
