Today we: continued work on long division with some small group practice and a few extra EA's to circulate and help with the procedures and operations. We did a math drill on 2's and the entire class has made exponential progress on their multiplication facts!
Before lunch, students were given extra time again to catch up on their current social and LA projects. Many managed to complete their Canadian Regions slideshows and practice presenting for the afternoon. Those who were done got some time on prodigy to practice their long division and 2-digit multiplication. There will be a test at the end of next week for these procedures so we will be practicing them daily until then.
After lunch we watched some of the students present their slideshows. I was very pleased to see more support and kindness from the class as an audience, they had many positive things to share about each presentation that lifted the presenters up.
We had a short discussion about the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. We discussed what their conflict was about, how it originated, and watched a few videos about the relationship between the two countries.
The day ended with P.E. and the students played a relay race of hockey shooting into nets. They reviewed how to hold a hockey stick and how to pass. We learned today that having a contest for the most points was not the most motivating way to get students engaged. They were very tired by the end of the day.
