Haley 6th Graders

@BostonSchools 6th graders sharing what we are learning.

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

How much space is there in our cafeteria for eating? Performance? Indoor PE? Applying our knowledge of geometry to make redesign proposals within the same area. #realworldmath

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Building community making #VeteransDay cards with our 1st grade buddy class.

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Exploring rectangular prisms with the same volume but very different surface areas using @openupresources Which would you want to use to ship your blocks?

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

We had a great time learning from tech professionals and designing our apps with @Salsify @Buildium and @Runkeeper. @HaleyPilotK8 thanks you for the opportunity!

We loved trying out different machines to recode numbers. Lots of #explodingdots and ah-ha moments as we celebrated #GlobalMathWeek!

6th Graders had a wonderful Friday of community building and enjoying the outdoors at Houghton’s Pond! Thank you @MassDCR and @Playworks.

Peaceful and joyful end to our Friday afternoon building community with our 1st grade buddy classroom designing squares for @CSRoxbury attempt to make the world's largest peace flag mural. What does peace mean to you? #peaceofmind

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

How many ways can you find the area? We have been decomposing rearranging and enclosing to find the area of composite figures and sharing our multiple solution paths. #learnwithIM

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Starting our geometry unit with @IllustrateMath Reasoning with tangrams we discovered that if 2 triangles make a square each is 1/2 square unit. Can you determine the area of this shape?

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Planting the seeds for a #growthmindset about our math learning this year by starting with @joboaler week of inspirational math activities. Building shapes, looking for growing patterns, and making mathematical models.

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

First week challenges proved successful! Building community through #teamwork #positivity and #perseverance. #6thgradenorms

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Great conversations in class today about placement of integers using #estimate180 inspired clothesline math.

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Great turn out at our winter showcase today. Thank you to the @HaleyPilotK8 parents and supporters who engaged with our 6th grade student experts. We were proud to show what we know!

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

We have been learning about models. We talked about the efficiency of using tables or double number lines. #ratiotables -Maia

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Last day to remember cans for our food drive is tomorrow. Thank you for all donations so far!

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Sorting and describing quantities using @IllustrateMath curriculum. What ratios do you see?

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Great way to culminate #BostonStemWeek. Ask your stem scholars what they have learned about the moon, notice and wonder. https://t.co/4cRdl0j04C

[NASA @NASA]

Saturday is Int'l #ObserveTheMoon Night! Get info on ways to participate + 5 facts you may not know about the Moon: https://t.co/Ga81rJtOcj

[Haley 6th Graders @HaleyGrade6]

Astronaut training today during #BostonSTEMWeek working on dexterity and communication skills.
