We switched things up today and started the day with the students using their Math brains. We practiced solving a problem by working backwards.
Just before lunch we had Language Arts and a special guest story teller. My friend is here from Canada to visit and she got the lovely pleasure of reading a storybook to the students and interacting with them. The students shared some lovely facts about Taiwan and they were very kind and welcoming.
After lunch, the students had an inquiry lesson: "How can we model the moon's phases?" Students worked in 2 large groups together modeling the phases of the moon and working on p. 341-342.
