Boundary Breaker: You are being sent back in time to the ancient civilization that you chose to research. You can only take one item with you. What would you take with you and why?
Starting off, we practiced our questioning skills to discover the hidden item in our mystery box. We found a postcard from the Roman Colosseum from our friend Mrs. Clarkson! You can check out her recent travels to the area here! Next we looked at a project exemplar featuring Roman art and created our own Roman mosaic artifacts.
For research today, we focused on the "I" of our F.I.N.D.S. method and students investigated different online and text sources for their research. We practice correct citations and began our preliminary note taking.
For math, 3rd graders kicked off Chapter 2 on grouping. We visited the alien land of Treble where they use a base 3 number system. Students practiced making trades among their place values and played a dice game to be the first player to reach 1 Trickle!
