Life Cycle of a Water Bottle

4/28/2022

 
We have been focussing on the Earth and how we can help make the world a better place.  One thing we often hear about is that water bottles are trouble, water bottles are bad, that water bottles are horrible! But why? Why is that such an issue, what’s wrong with water bottles?  This week for your blog, I’d like you to watch the following video and let’s learn about what can happen with a water bottle during its lifespan.
After watching the video, I’d like you to either draw (on paper) or use Pixton to create a comic strip that showcases what you will do to help spread the word about water bottles or a comic that summarizes what you’ve learned.  If you’re looking for a great place for pictures, you can use the following!

Welcome back to weekly homework, I know it’s been quite a ride over these last few weeks with Mr. Steltman being in and out, and many absences. We’re back in action and ready to rock our homework again! 
For this week, we’re going to focus on writing descriptions and thinking specifically about describing food! This website has a list of over 100 words to describe how food can look, taste, smell, feel in your mouth, and even sound!  For your blog post this week, you have a two part challenge.
Part 1: Choose a food that you wish to describe and then pick 5 words from this list that would go well with it.
Part 2: Write a menu entry as if you owned a restaurant and were going to try to get people to choose this item. 
For example: 
Part 1- Grilled Cheese: Gooey, crispy, sticky, mouth-watering, zesty
Menu: 4 Cheese Grilled Cheese: Two thick slices of rye bread, crisped up to perfection with a blend of 4 mouth-watering cheeses, melted until gooey and sticky. Served with zesty ketchup and golden french fries.  


Growth Mindset Poems!

4/7/2022

 
I know that this has been a challenging week at school! I want to thank each of you for trying your best while I’ve been away. This week, you’ve really had to demonstrate resilience and a growth mindset. This video is titled growth mindset in math.  I want you to listen closely to the words of the song. How do they explain what a growth mindset is?  Does this connect with your thought on what a growth mindset is?  We have spent a lot of time talking about Growth Mindset and mistakes in math this year.  For your blog post this week, you have a poetry challenge!  Can you write song lyrics or a poem about what you think a growth mindset is?  Your poem does not have to rhyme but most definitely can. The joy of poetry is that there is no wrong way to write a poem. Teach the world about growth mindset through your wonderful, creative poems! 
Good Luck!
