Love this sweet message!
Exploring 3D shapes!
Exploring different kind of rocks and what products are made from them.
We learned about the word "scarcity". We talked about how there isn't always enough money, time, resources to have ALL the things we want. We did an activity about putting things in our pockets. We brainstormed things that could go in our pocket. We each got a sheet of paper and wrote down 1 thing we would want to put in our pocket.
We slowly started putting things in our "pocket".
More things...
The pocket is very full and uncomfortable.
To be more comfortable, I chose items for Mrs. Graves that I would want in my pocket. I had to make a choice about what got to be in and what I would not get to put in my pocket. We talked about how everyone's pocket would have different items because we all NEED and WANT different things.
We read a book called "General Store". We talked about what general meant and what they might sell.
We brainstormed about what kind of store we would want to have if we could.
Then we made a tree map with the reasons why we would want to have that kind of store.
Today I introduced the words "withdrawal" and "deposit".
I read some scenarios that described either a withdrawal or deposit.
They held up whether they thought it was a withdrawal or deposit.
Then we wrote our own scenarios of withdrawals and deposits.
