It was a busy week for Team Maximus! Police memorial parade, test fest, and our end of the year country project to learn about trade and interdependence! @LCS_BC @MrsMartin_BIS @BIS_principal
Team Maximus and Team Ignite are kicking off our mystery unit! We will be focusing on claim and evidence writing involving real-life and fictional mysteries! @MrsMartin_BIS @BIS_principal@LCS_BC
Today we had extended silent reading and extended read aloud time! We continued The Deceivers by Margaret Peterson Haddix! @LCS_BC@BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS
Today students gave a peer feedback about their narrative writing. Next step is for them to use the feedback given to them to make their writing stronger! They did a great job! @BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS @LCS_BC
Today we started our first self-paced unit in LA! We are focused on theme and direct evidence! Pre-assessments determined where students started @LCS_BC@BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS
@gordonkorman I am a 5th grade teacher and we were in the middle of reading Criminal Destiny when school was closed. Can I read aloud to my students using google classroom?
This week, Team Maximus is working on creating multiple tier timelines to show what was going on in Ancient Civilations and Europe during the 15th-17th centuries! @BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS @LCS_BC
Using what I’ve learned from Empower for Social studies. Only requirement is that they need to explore an open ended question! Created a class list to help get started but they are not limited to that list @BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS @LCS_BC#exploreBIS
@MuellerHolly Yes! Read aloud is my favorite part of the day and a lot of my students as well! 2 weeks ago my students begged me to just read aloud the whole class period...so I did! They couldn’t wait to finish the book.
This year we are learning about gov’t & economics by playing a game! Ss created their own countries and have to obtain resources to build cities and feed their citizens. They are learning about trade, specialization and consequences of decisions! @BIS_principal @MrsMartin_BIS
