Tuning-In to Energy in our World in Tuesday

Nature and our bodies make and use energy.  Here is a text-text  science connection to the rock cycle and the energy that the sun provides for weathering, erosion  and the internal energy found at the earth's core.




For our bodies today we tried a new daily energy routine, that will continue to  build our mindfulness and stamina for learning.  Here is a link in case you are interested in trying it at home.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gffKhttrRw4



We also work on the math problem I posted with an extra challenge to collect 100 wheels and then 1000.  We certainly persisted and came up with some good strategies.  This math problem helped us connect to background knowledge about fractions and money (quarters).  Practicing our mental math is important everyday.  We also made another connection back to cycles in science and how all of the wheels in this math problem are connected to the cycles in nature because they keep on going, they move in a repeated sequence.
