Conder ALERT students had an extremely fun and produtive day today. After the last few Friday's of weather and workdays it felt like I hadn't seen them in forever. They solved tons of a new type of math puzzle - that most of them took one look at and were sure they didn't understand - it took one kid to get up and explain what she thought was the right way to solve the problem and pretty much everyone was off and rolling from there. They were asking to race each other, some of them even wanted to race me. I did not go undefeated, one of the fifth graders finished 1 question ahead of me. They explored the nets of triangular prisms and what those had to do with roof shapes in architecture. They decided on a final house for their project build, created their door ruler (scaling ruler), and did the final octile scaling for their building sketch.
