Thursday by Nathan and Grace

Kim’s math class did subtraction again. Betsy’s math class figured out the area and perimeter of some things in the classroom then we did area and perimeter worksheets. In drama we worked on our characters and in music we played songs on our ukuleles. Kim’s class ate lunch with us. After lunch Betsy told us about Rube Goldberg and showed us one of his drawings. We brainstormed simple tasks that would make good Rube Goldberg contraptions, then we each chose one and designed it. First we did a rough draft and showed it to Betsy. Now we are redoing them before we write about the steps. It was fun!
