New Month = New Seating Chart!

 

It’s that time again! Just in case you’re wondering, I’m talking about new seating spots in the room. Every month, the students get new carpet spots, circle spots, math spots, science spots, and Vietnamese spots. Yes, I know that’s a lot of spots to remember…but surprisingly, the kids remember all their new spots by the second day. I like to give them lots of places to sit throughout the day so they can mingle with different classmates.

For each subject (math, science, and Vietnamese) in my class, I use this baking pan to organize their seating chart. There's 2 sets for each class-- my homeroom and my afternoon class. The kids are awesome and got the system down of how these baking pans work.

Last week in math, we worked on generating our own word problem when given a number sentence. Very similar to their math hw that was in the hw packet. I told them NO BORING SENTENCES!! We worked on including sentences that included exciting adjectives. Their sentences needed to be 6 or more words. Next week, we are moving on and will be learning about correct strategies to measuring length. The following week, we will focus on capacity, weight, and etc.
