ChristopherBrandonHannahElizabethJacobJaceWhat if you found out Santa had you on his naughty list? How would you persuade him to put you on the nice list and deliver all the presents you would like this year? This was the question of the week as we were writing our letters to Santa. The students and I talked about how to persuade someone and the format of a persuasive letter. Please take a look at the Santa Letters we have up so far... More to come each day! Stay Tuned!!! :) Happy Holidays! ThomasEllaHaileyTadenWant to know how old you are in minutes? The students worked with very large numbers today in math to figure out how many days, hours, and minutes old they were! We took our age and multiplied it by 365 days to get an answer, took the answer of that problem and multiplied it by 24 to figure out how many hours we were. After that we took the answer and mutliplied it by 60 to find how many minutes old we are. Here is a fun website to calculate your age up to the seconds!! :)
