Class activities for Friday, September 11
Today, we worked on these activities:
- We practiced multiples (2, 4, 6, 8 or 3, 6, 9, 12) for the warmup.
- Today was Team Day. Students had to work together to…
- cross a line, while keeping their shoes touching their neighbors shoes at all times
- untie a not in a rope around a tree, while holding the rope, not letting go, and not switching hands
- get their entire group on an ever-shrinking sheet, and
- move a hula hoop to the ground, with everyone using just one finger to hold the hoop up, and also keeping their finger touching the hoop at all times.
The students worked hard and didn’t give up. It wasn’t easy, and many students failed at first, but they let their failures teach them! Everyone can be proud of how hard they worked together! Thanks to parents and family members for helping to coach the activities! We couldn’t have had Team Day without you!
Today, we also…
- started working on our class Mission Statement
- passed out Friday notes (look for your students shuttle folder)
Finally, we ended class remembering the sad events of September 11, 2001. We watched a presentation of images and also listened to a poem.
