Class spends the day brushing up on test preparation




Today was an exciting day.  Everyone is concerned about the tests.  Most just want them to be finished!  We have discussed the importance of taking our time and doing our best.  We watched a couple of funny songs on Youtube today about testing.

We started with a probability review, using cut-out shapes.

In math worked with data analysis and probability.

We revisited contractions today and went to computers during language slot.

We did a higher level thinking activity called The Sum’s the Same.  We used the squares that are like the ones that Ben Franklin invented, where the total is the same no matter what direction you add.

Thank you to those who have already sent snacks.  We still don’t have any drinks.  We will be having them before the test so if you want to do donuts or something like that, it would be okay.
