We spent a few days looking at t-charts, which is a way to organize our growing patterns through a table. Yesterday, the students created an Inukshuk using pattern blocks, then had to figure out how many of each block they would need to make 7 Inukshuks. In one column they would write the number of Inukshuks, in the other column, they would write the number of blocks.
Yesterday the students had the opportunity to see a variety of crystals from Mrs. Lopes. She came in and told us all about several different types of minerals and their properties. She also showed us her sound bowl. Each student had the opportunity to put the hands in the sound bowl to feel the frequency. It helped to calm us down too :) Ask your child what they enjoyed most about the presentation.
