This week the classes finished up their "Fantasy Land" posters. Groups
scored high marks on Presentation and Teamwork while also effectively
accomplishing the Technical aspect of the project (completing the
Grid, Index, Compass Rose, and Legend, and including the assigned
number of cities, mountains, lakes, and rivers). Although some of the
groups had issues with lost maps (or literally eaten ones, as candy
was used in their design), they bounced back to complete the assignment.
Between work on the projects the 3rd Grade also continued its efforts
on Scales, in preparation for In-Class #3 the following week. Students
worked in the book and the teacher went over the concept using
students names as "cities." In addition, students were called to the
board one after the other, the one student teaching the concept to the
subsequent student, up and down the rows.
Third graders also received their study guide for the Exam (on May
9th), for which the groups will have a week to review.
