Cat (MRS GREN)

LI: To show how an organism does each characteristics that all living things do.
Today I learned in my group to make a video about how an organism does the seven characteristics of life (MRS GREN). MRS GREN stands for movement, respiration, sensitivity, growth, reproduction, excretion and nutrition. My group and me made a script so we can talk off of, and we made a slide show with videos and pictures so when we record people will have a brief image on what it really looks like. Today I learned by working as a team.

Show and tell

LI: to write a descriptive scene.

Netiquette

LI: to interact in a kind, positive and helpful way.
Today I learned about netiquette. Group A made some rules . The rules were write clearly and easy to read comments and emails, show kindness, truthfulness, and encouragement, keep your private (personal) information to yourself, ask for permission when posting other peoples personal information, don't look for arguments online. Today I learned by listening to the instructions.

Inferring

LI: to infer information from a text.
Today I read a text called man and the sea. This text was a about a boy who was growing older, since that he was growing older we got a tattoo. Since that his dad died he had to get a job to help the family so they could pay their rents and their bills. I also had to write my inferences on a google doc and I had to write the hints that I used. I also had to make a comic strip/story board about the text. Today I learned by using my prior knowledge from the past.

Kiwi Can


LI: To learn what accountability and consequence means.
Today I learned about accountability and consequences. Today we also played two games. Those two games were called blind ball (this is not the name, I forgot the actual name). The other game was called cone (this isn't the real name).  How to play cone is pretty easy, you have a partner that the opposite side of you, one person has to pick a word and she has to tell a little story, when the word comes around you have to grab the cone before your partner does. How to play blind ball is a bit harder that the last game. You have to have four groups with an equal amount of people in each group. One person in your group has to be blind folded and one person has to guide the person into getting a ball and putting into there hoop, whoever has the most balls in their hoop that team wins.
