First graders made gliders today in math. Our learning target was “I can collect data.” Team Beseth took their gliders outside and made a tally chart to see which glider went farthest. They used their shoe as a nonstandard measurement tool! So fun! #teambesethrocks #math #gliders
Team Beseth loved having Mrs. Sopha come in once a week to review problem solving ideas and practicing the “size” of a problem. They have done an amazing job working together! #sel #teambeseth #idepride #socialemotionallearning 👍🏻
Mrs. Sopha helped us practice self control with a game of “Follow the Rules”. Team Finn showed great teamwork!
