Today the Joy Pod students started their day with 'Just Dance' to get our bodies moving and worked on our grasslands mural for Ignite.
In Math, students worked on 2-D shapes, specifically learning about symmetry and polygons. Ask your child tonight to find a shape around them that is symmetrical, and ask them how they know! Here are some examples of symmetrical shapes within the school:
Students had a chance to finish their observations and wonderments about the grassland samples in the classroom. Students recorded in their visual journals what they noticed about the samples including colors, height, texture and named the samples. Lastly, students began to write a reflection in their journals answering the question "What would happen if the grasslands went extinct?".
Today the Joy Pod students were also introduced to poetry! We began reading a variety of poems and were deciding which poems were our favorite and made connections to our own lives.
