We our recent hands-on day was a success! We worked at stations that focused on fractions and text features. We were able to have two technology stations, one with computers where students used games from http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/ and an iPod station, where we had three fraction apps downloaded for them to choose from that morning. The stations were fun but challenging! Later on in the day, we completed some partner reading in science and used a Venn diagram to compare plant and animal cells. There were some great conversations!
