It...I love how you made math so meaningful here! It's great to see your willingness to step outside of your comfort zone, and it's clear that the students loved the activity. This year, my Grade 5's worked together to try and design a new classroom for the full-day Kindergarten program. I gave them possible hallways and measurements that they needed to use (a range of measurements that is), and they could get creative. It was great to see them calculating area and perimeter in such a meaningful way, and it's a project that they still talk about now. I wonder if there might be a similar need in your school (not for an FDK class, but for another grade class). This could make for a fun project, and students could even create their model classrooms in Minecraft (making that link for you as well). I'm excited to see what you do!<br /><br />AvivaAviva (@avivaloca)http://adunsiger.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514860513640386097.post-84501952072044140182014-03-23T10:39:03.325-04:002014-03-23T10:39:03.325-04:00Love it!
