Some Thinking on Thursday!

Howdy Folks!

Today we continued to work on our writing stamina pushing ourselves to write another story, after we've completed our current one!






For math today, we practiced computer procedures! We practiced logging onto our Google Drive accounts, how to switch back and forth from tab to tab, and then accessing documents on our Drive account! After playing some interactive games that dealt with placing numbers on a number line,  sequencing numbers, and comparing numbers, we worked on logging out of our accounts, and shutting down our laptops! Utilizing a laptop might see like second nature to you and me, but to third graders, it's a brand new frontier that requires step-by-step directions, and A LOT of practice!



We also spent a portion of the school day practicing our collaboration skills in order to come up with a set of agreed-upon rules/procedures for Pokemon Friday tomorrow!


We continued to work on the keyword strategy today, using the strategy to recall information, and recording the information in our own words!


 

And that's the get down folks! Cheers, and have a good one!
