Feb. 1-5

This week in math students worked on solving patterning problems, including input/output tables and extending numeric patterns. Students also learned how to extend patterns of shapes, such as rectangles, and use tables to predict patterns. 

We continued with our inquiry entitled, "What is Freedom?" We watched this powerful video and discussed the main idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0qD2K2RWkc

Students finished their literature circle books and completed a movie poster for their book. Students are also working on a reading response for their book. Each group is working together to plan a movie trailer for their book, using imovie. Filming will start next week!
