Pratt's Primary Corner
Weekly Update- May 17, 2019
Week at a Glance
Math- We're still focusing on area and perimeter to finish out the school year. Number corner is focused on area and looking at the fractional parts that make up the area.
Computer Science- Next week we will be programming robots!! Yahooo!!
Science/Social Studies- COSI on wheels was a huge hit this week! We learned about different animal adaptations and how animals survive in the wild!
Writing- Next week we will begin publishing our Opinion writing!
No homework menu this week. See section below if you would like homework suggestions!
You are Invited!
I thought it would be a great time for you to come in and see what we've been doing with computer science.
If you are interested in checking out robotics, you're welcome to come to our classroom between 11:45 AM-12:20 PM on Thursday, May 23rd. Do not feel obligated to stay the whole time, just pop in and out as you are able.
A few things to keep in mind- it may be loud, messy, and a bit frustrating at times! Productive struggle is common when working on these projects. If you come in and your child doesn't yet have the robot programmed and is still working through it, that's OK! I promise- you'll be amazed and excited at what they are able to do! :)
