The Internet is Down!

No Internet! Don't panic! We can revert to earlier behaviors.  Room 102 broke out the board games with actual dice. What? We have to roll the dice manually? Yes, yes you do.

Curriculum board games provide a motivational way for students to review important concepts.  They engage children in an activity that challenges the mind, teaches social skills, and promotes active learning while having fun!

Who Wants to Win a Recess?

Recess in fifth grade?  Students in Room 102 are playing Who Wants to Be a Millionaire to win a recess.

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire is a popular television game show which offers prizes for correctly answering a series of multiple-choice questions of increasing difficulty. The maximum prize in Room 102 is a recess.

Students are playing this game on the classroom Smart Board.  Hope runs high of making it to the top tier. The questions in the game challenge student understanding of figurative langauage. The game has generated some real excitement over STUDYING the figurative language terms.
