Happy Ice Day!

Hi Fifth Graders and Families!

Happy Ice Day! Here are some activities to keep your brains warm today:

  • Today would be a SPECTACULAR day to work on your “Where I’m From” poems!  Discuss and brainstorm with your family!
  • You will find project guidelines for 2 new projects on our GoogleClassroom pages.  On the writing page, I have posted the guidelines for our final poetry project.  On the science page, I have posted the guidelines for our circuit board project.  Feel free to read through the guidelines and start thinking about them!
  • Speaking of GoogleClassroom, the movie and Nearpod about circuits are still available if you want to play with them.
  • Play some games on https://www.icivics.org/games.  You don’t need to create a profile or account to play the games and the “Win the White House” game can be quite challenging!  Good luck!
  • Play around with this cool website about the ocean.
  • National Geographic Kids has some simple, fun experiments you can try at home. Here is one of my favorites: Color Explosions
  • National Geographic Kids also has some fun games.  Try these MadLibs (Bonus: you get to practice with parts of speech!)
  • Typing Club, Code.org, Xtramath, and IXL are always available.  Remember that IXL has games now!
  • Build a fort and read a book.  Bonus points if you find some poetry to read!  You will need to pick a favorite poem to share soon – feel free to start looking for it!
  • Check out these suggestions from Specials Teachers here.

 

Stay safe and warm today! Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!  And Day of Play on Wednesday!
