MK Creates a Math Kahoot

What do you do when you get your homework done and you are looking for something to do? Why not create a Kahoot quiz about Math for your classmates?

MK did just that.  She created a Math quiz that was quite challenging.  See the video below.
It was definitely a hit as you can see.

Summer Challenge

Congratulations CC for speaking at the Summer Challenge meeting held last night.  RCSD is asking that students create tutorials to explain Math concepts to be compiled as a resource in the coming years. 
Check out what you need to do on the District page.

She explained to the packed library of students and parents how she created tutorials to explain Math concepts using ShowMe and Lensoo.
To see the tutorials we already made go to our class site.  Stay tuned for our latest batch that use Google Slidses and Movenote to explain how to solve problems with perimeter and area.

This week we had Olympic Day on Monday. We did 3 NEW things: hurtles, stepping stones, and Alaskan Football.  I liked the hurdles the best.

On Tuesday, we had gym and played kickball.  Our team won!

On Wednesday we had music.  I had performance day and danced to Everybody Talks with Ava, Lexi, and Alyssa.  Also, Chloe brought in a snack to celebrate her birthday!  She brought in my favorite -- Jolly Rancher ice pops!

On Thursday, I had a play date with Ava.  She came home with me on my bus.  We played on my trampoline and on my swing set.

On Friday, I brought in a snack to celebrate my birthday!  Also Friday we made our own ice pops because Ava is leaving :(. Later in the day on Friday, Mrs.Roberts and Mrs.McCarter told our class what instrument we are going to play next year! I got the Viola! And that is what happened this week!

When we were using the Chrome Books on Tuesday we were taking a math test that we made on our own. But we got to make the test and we added angles and shapes. But we got to do regular questions, short answer, list, and true or false. Also when we made the test some questions. Dr. Steffens saw them and put it on the test. Also at the end of the math test there were some questions asking if we liked making the test or for Dr. Steffens to make the test.

 WATER
We are studying water in Reading/Science it is very interesting learning about oceans, streams, brooks, rivers, and glaciers. 

BUSH BEAN

     In Science we are growing bush beans. They are adult plants. Their leaves are so big. When the bush beans were seeds they were so small now they have a stem and leaves I can’t believe that they grew so much.

    SCRIPT

 

         Something awesome is that we are learning script in class it is hard but me and my class got the hang of it. We can write some words like dad , gag, cad, add, had . It’s very hard to make h in script but someday I'll be able to write in script.

INSTRUMENT DEMO

    In the gym we had an instrumental demo for when we get into 4th grade. All the instruments sounded great. Some instruments were big like string bass. You have to be tall and strong to play string Bass. To play the trumpet you have to blow very hard.  Well that’s enough from the amazing week I had.

        

Second Annual Paper Airplane Derby Measures Up to Last Year's

This has been a great week for displaying problem-solving and ingenuity. After distance trials and a chance to redesign their planes, all four classes met for the final face-off on Friday, May 9. MW had the farthest distance for her plane for the whole grade level and JM came in third overall. Below is a slideshow of some of the highlights.
