EHS Grade 3/4 Hope Pod

November 14, 2018

Some of us went on the climbing wall during Ignite. We learned some safety rules and that it hurts your hands a lot because of the rough holds. Our hands need to get used to it.
We did 3 rounds of Daily 5 which included a read to someone, read to self and work on writing. We were working on our stamina and improving our reading and writing skills.
Next, Mr. Kelly came and taught us how to use the rule of thirds to make your subject clear in your photo.
We played horse basketball in PE today. It was fun! In groups we had to shoot at the basketball and if we missed we began to spell the word HORSE and if we got the basketball in the hoop we began to spell AWESOME!
We had CCT today and in Mr. Kelly's group we got to chapter 5 in the Boy Called Bat. Dr. Jerry Dragoo wrote back to Bat and said, "Skunks don't make the best pets so I shouldn't keep him."

We have been considering the needs we have as humans. Let me share some of the needs my group brainstormed as well as how we categorized them.
