What a Mixed-up Day!

Mr. Marenchin was a special guest in our room today.  He shared the text "A Porcupine in a Pine Tree" with us. We participated in a sing-a-long and a meaningful discussion about the religious song lyrics that I posted on our blog on Monday of this week.                                                          

 

               The "Jolly OLD Elf"

We also completed the gym presentations.  All groups have now taught their invented game and we have had the opportunity to participate in them all.  They were creative and fun!     Check out the photos!                                

   

Today we took a closer look at the math work from yesterday.  There was a very wide variety of answers:  the largest being a page with an area of 4050 square centimetres and the smallest being a page with an area of 1734 square centimetres.  The page that I was able to use had an area of 1519 square centimetres.  Various groups of students earned Good News Tickets depending on how close they were to my answer.  Congratulations to Hailey and Abbey who earned four tickets each because they were the closest!
