Third Grade: Day 177

Piano today was cancelled due to Ms. Gonzales being sick. Hopefully she’s feeling better and we can get back to lessons next week.

Today Isabel was on a roll! Everything we did, she just flew through. We did slow down for some deep explanations in math and metric conversions. It was a good day.

5-minute frenzy:

Still working on this one.

Metric system lesson:

I gave her 4 sheets to complete on her own and then afterward we went over them together. We spent a good portion of our afternoon going over metric length.

Mix of centimeters and meters.

Kilometer to meter or visa-versa.

Her biggest assignment today (besides learning the conversions) was to retell a story. That’s it.  She struggled with what to retell. After much struggling and brain freezes, she picked the story of Joseph. She told the story and I recorded (wrote) what she retold.

She did a great job and she made sure that I wrote down exactly what she said. If I got it wrong, she would correct me before going on.

Until tomorrow…
