Our Hard Work on Display!

Students worked together to analyze and make inferences in a Dr. Seuss favorite, The Lorax, which teaches about taking care of the environment.

Inspired by Dr. Seuss' The Lorax, students learned that the choices we make influence others. Students examined their conscience by reflecting upon the daily choices they make. In a graphic organizer, students separated their choices by asking themselves, "Was this a wise choice?" Answers: Absolutely, Maybe, No Way! Some Absolutely wise choices: "Went to confession," "Helped do the dishes," etc. Some maybe choices: "Made a bet with my brother," and "Played video games." Some No Way choices: "Stayed up until 11PM on a school night," "Fought with my brother," and "Got a homework default." 

Fractions Fun! Students used the Smartboard, the Elmo, and Fractions tiles in Math class to demonstrate their understanding of equivalent fractions and measurement.
