DH Shares his Sketch on the SmartBOARD

Constructive Response

ISTEP (Round 1) starts next week.  This session is composed of constructive response questions, no multiple choice.  

This week Team 184 practiced some strategies for rocking the test.  One of the strategies we practiced was using the words from the question to answer the question.  Also, using ideas from the text is super important!

C3-PO


Do you know what C3-PO stands for in Room 184?  Well, the three Cs stand for CREATIVITY, CAPABILITY, and CURIOSITY.  The PO = Projects/OxBow. 

Once a week Team 184 gets an hour to work on their own projects.  Here are some of the things they do:

  • Write plays
  • Choreograph dances
  • Research 
  • Write newsletters
  • Create videos
  • Art: Draw, make collages
  • Create photo montages
  • Screencasts
At the end we have a sharing time.  It is fun to see ideas come to life!

Problem Solving

We worked together as teams to figure out how to solve a math problem.  Then we got a chance to explain our thinking to our classmates.  It was hard, but we did it.
