Daily Reporter-January 5, 2011 By your dead-on reporter ** // __Simon__ // ** Our overcast non-sunny possibly rainy day started with the daily doings board as normal, except when we’re so busy we forget which is pretty much every other day. Anyway, the number fact for today was, “There are ** // __5__ // ** states that border the Pacific Ocean.” After that we moved straight to 30 time. If you’ve read // any // of the past reports you’d know what it is. So, I recommend one; especially mine if you’d like to know what 30 time is. My group is doing Common Commonalities where we learn things about each other and then draw a life size poster. I learned many things like, Nathan doesn’t like pizza and Lily has eaten a grasshopper. Little things like that. I’m not sure what we get academically from this except maybe art. After 30 time it was straight to my sorta-favorite subject math. We did 5.2 in our math logs. 5.2 was about circles and area and perimeter. We reviewed terms like radius, diameter, and circumference. Then we reviewed timeline posters. Timeline posters are basically we get a event or person from history, research it or them, and put it on a poster. This sharing thing was kind of new. Anyway it didn’t go to well because after the last person today shared (me!) it was established about at least 1\4th of the class was not prepared. Our teacher wasn’t too happy about that. After that we had lunch yada... yada... yada and finally we got to science. In science Mrs. Moline (our teacher) gave us some numbers. None of us new what they were until Mrs. Moline established they were the atomic numbers of elements from the periodic table. That’s right devoted readers; we were studying a new unit on elements. After that we had singing in music and that was the end of the day. – ** __ Simon Lee 3rd class investigator MOOLINE NEWS. __ **
