How can we keep our bodies healthy?
The App Dev team invited Ann Bath and Coach K from Orange Theory Oak Park to visit and answer some questions about exercise and healthy eating for Mood Monster's Wellness Workshop. The team found out the top exercises for kids to do, how long ids need to exercise each day, and some healthy foods for kids to eat.
Why do some people challenge themselves to achieve difficult goals, and others do not?
The Chat with Mrs. Burns's Third Grade was lucky to have a face-to-face discussion (via Google Hangouts) with adventurer James Ketchell. The episode is currently in post-production (we had a glitch, and I am trying to piece the podcast together), and will be released tomorrow.
Tune in to The Chat with Mrs. Burns's Third Grade every week on Apple Podcasts (or via Audioboom, if you don't have iOS). Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss an episode! Art appreciation with Mrs. Roginski
Students visted the 1980's to learn about artist Keith Haring, then created their own mural in his style.
Valentine's Party next Thursday, February 14
Our Valentine's Day Party will be Thursday, February 14 at 8:45AM. Much earlier than usual, but there will be a lot of traffic in school that day because of the Kindergarten Valentine's Concert later that morning. All parents are welcome to join us, if you'd like!
Kids will be able to hand out Valentines to each other that morning. We will make envelopes to collect them in school. If your child is handing out Valentines, there are 23 students in our clasroom: 13 boys and 10 girls. Please remember, if handing out Valentines, one must be brought for each child in the class. Also, no candy should be attached to the Valentines. Getting ready to present a persuasive speech
The students are getting ready to present their first persuasive speech to the class next week. They've chosen a variety of ideas to champion, and are ready to convince: some students are writing about a sports figure that is the very best (in their opinion); some are writing about school rules that they want changed; some are writing about global topics. I am looking forward to hearing all the speeches!
Who am I?
We continue to work on the very important skill of summarizing. Kids had fun summarizing the biography they are reading in a short video clip. Can you guess the biographies Sophia and Charles are reading?
Investigating perimeter
This week, students explored measurement, perimeter, and polygons. Students practiced using measurement tools, determining the perimeter of polygons, and finding a missing side length. Please see the short Math Words and Ideas video activities below to understand what how your child is learning these concepts.
