Here GB is using the tangrams to figure out this pattern.
LB is coloring in his graph for the game Spin and Subtract.
WG and DS are showing what they know about clocks on the computers.
After we play games for a little while, we work on problem solving. We are in the middle of making our pumpkin story problems. First we created a background where pumpkins might be.LT drew a cornfield at night.
SS drew the front of a house.
JG also liked the house idea.
The students did some very careful coloring. SM is making sure she uses 5 or more colors.
Here is CT's finished background.
Our next step was to create the pumpkins. However many pumpkins they create is how many will be in their story problem. Some students made 10 and some students made more than 20.
WG chose the cemetery as his background and then he carefully placed his pumpkins. We will be writing our problems next week and I can't wait to see what they come up with!
