Fifth grade students did a fantastic job presenting their Food Truck Projects for Grandfriends’ Day. After transforming our classroom into a food truck festival, decorating and personalizing each desk, and dressing up to match the theme of their trucks, the students were so excited to showcase their hard work. I was very impressed with them and would be an extremely satisfied customer visiting any of their food trucks!
This week, we began our last mini math project for this school year, which is creating and designing an original aquatic center or water park. Skills highlighted in this project are: reviewing unit cube, volume of rectangular prisms, and practicing interview skills (they must interview potential employees to work in their park). Finally, students will design their own aquatic center and determine the volume of each pool, as well as the total volume of the park. This will be an impactful learning opportunity that is perfect to launch us into summer vacation!
