I am so excited to get to know my 4th graders, to see my 5th graders, and meet our new Mills Park Panthers coming from other schools! Classes will start this week, and I can't wait. We will start with the introduction/review of class procedures and then we will get right in to our units.
All of the AIG resource class units are designed to align with the standards their classroom teachers are addressing. For example my 5th grade math group will start with learning about the stock market. They are studying numbers and operation in math class and economics in social studies. So, learning about the stock market extends and aligns with current standards. It is my goal to always offer a real world, rigorous unit to push thinking, collaboration and creativity. If you're wondering about creativity in the stock market...wait and see what the kids do!
Check back soon to see what all the other classes will be doing!
