Today was another excellent day in our classroom! We finished our graphing labs from yesterday where we created survey questions for the class to turn qualitative feelings into quantitative data! When had some great questions!
We learned that more of us like vanilla ice cream, that not too many people walk to school, and that a lot of us have more than one sibling, including Ella who has four younger brothers!
The last half of the class period, we discussed using qualitative and quantitative pieces of information to support claims made. In other words, how to use evidence to support a claim. We each took on the role as a musical artist and located pieces of evidence that supported or negated our claim. 7th grade had to finish this for homework and write their argument (communication) using the data (reasoning) while the 6th grade will finish tomorrow.
Thanks to Asa for looking up our two new words on the "Life word wall" and I want to give a shout out to Coty for getting the first wolf bone from our class!!!!
Devon got an All star pickle jar from me while working with his group and trusting in the fact that they were a team.
You all did a great job! Remember binders are due tomorrow and 7th grade you must finish your paragraph and worksheets for tomorrow.
If you weren't here, click here for the graphic organizer and here for a list of a few artists we looked at.
Un abrazo,
Ms. Trivedi
