We began our unit on graphing today. This is one of my favorite units to teach. It gives a lot of opportunities for the kids to move around. They love collecting data! We worked out of our new math series today My Math. This math series absolutely ROCKS! Here is a photo of my kids collecting some data to create their own bar graphs.
We also began talking about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We began by completing a simple K-W-L anchor chart.
After talking about what we knew or what we thought we knew, we watched a quick video on www.brainpopjr.com. If you haven't used this website before...USE IT! It is wonderful! After discussing the video, the kids wrote about what they learned about Dr. King.
Lastly for today...BRAIN BREAKS! Let me just say that these are crucial! Not only for my sweet firsties to get out those wiggles, but to keep this teacher sane! Our favorite brain breaks are ones in which we can get our grove on! Here is our favorite one...
Happy Monday!
