ADST Paper Tower Challenge! Click above to see more!

Today, students started the day off with an engaging Applied Design, Science, and Technology learning activity. The learning intention was: I can collaborate with others to reach a common goal. The purpose of this was to build a tower with limited supplies within a short time frame. Students planned, collaborated, and build their towers. This gave them some background knowledge on what was needed to collaborate successfully with others. We created an action criteria chart (C-Chart) for collaboration immediately following this activity! Later, they continued learning about place value, completed a writing self-assessment, and started their Social Studies Unit on the Inquiry process with Mrs. Altman.

IMPORTANT:
1.) Bring all materials for your collage that you need to create it at school.

LEARNING:
1.) MATH:

Complete all assigned work if you haven't completed it yet. (2 worksheets)
Click here to play some Place Value Games. Choose ones appropriate to your level.

2.) POST A RESPONSE:

Today, we continued reading from 'ONE FOR THE MURPHY'S'.
One of the reading strategies you are learning about right now is using your background knowledge to make connections. You will write a deep and meaningful connection you had with today's reading.
Today, we learned Carly felt bad for making Mrs. Murphy cry.

LEARNING INTENTION:
SUCCESS CRITERIA:
1.) Paragraph format (intro, body, and conclusion)
2.) Explain how you connected with how Carly or Mrs. Murphy felt from what happened. In your
deep connection, you must explain a personal experience where you made someone cry, or
someone made you cry.
- How did you feel?
- How do you think the other person felt?
3.) Pay attention to the givens/conventions (spelling, grammar, capitals, punctuation, and sentence
structure.)
4.) Read at least one other person's paragraph and ask them one question about it.
5.) Reply to any comments/questions you receive.

'One for the Murphy's' is a great book with lots of connections to keep you interested. A connection I made in chapter 11 is when Carley plays with Adam and Micheal Eric. Me and my brother always play and pretend to be superheroes with powers. We would tale our blasters and shoot to the death, outrun each other like we were the flash and even take leaves to make armor. That was my connection with the book. What's yours?

First to do PAR, the meaningful connection i made is i am always sad when i make someone cry, i get sad and try to cheer them up because i dont think its nice. most of the time anyway. Since a lot of people are just cry babies and cry over small things like my brother he once literally cried because i didnt share my candy xD

Dylan

9/22/2020 03:28:20 pm

@Rong En - what other things do they cry about?

Mr. Hong

@ Roen - Please correctly use capital letters. :)

In the book we read today, Carley made Ms. Murphy cry and felt bad for doing so. A connection I made was that once I made my sister cry because I kept in poking her face. She didn’t like that and she started screaming and crying. I didn’t know that she would cry and I thought that she would just get annoyed. I felt bad for her and said sorry later. I learned not to annoy her like that afterwards. But sometimes I still do...

@Dylan - Her face will become red if you keep poking her. :P

ive never actually seen that happen

Trevor

How come she didn't try to block your hand?

Keira

9/22/2020 03:31:55 pm

A connection I made from the book 'One For The Murphy's' is when I see someone in pain, I feel bad and want to cry, seeing someone cry or be treated badly makes me empathize and sympathize. Although, when there is a positive energy around, I seem to follow along quite easily.

Ryo

@Keira - The Success Criteria is that you must explain a personal experience where you made someone cry, or someone made you cry.

Keira

9/22/2020 05:04:58 pm

@Ryo - Yes, this is what made me cry.

One time I told my brother how anger-prone he is after he whacked me and he started crying. I didn't really feel bad because he cried at a lot of things and it wasn't really my fault anyway.

In the book One for the Murphy’s, Carly made Mrs Murphy cry. I connect to the story because one time some said something mean about me and I asked why they said that and then she started crying. I felt bad because I don’t want anyone to be sad. So next time maybe I can just not say anything.

Seth

9/22/2020 04:08:03 pm

Do you know why SHE stared crying?

Luiza

9/22/2020 07:01:36 pm

I don't really know

Seth

One for the Murphy’s is an interesting book with lots of emotions today while reading I made a connection with Carly, and how she felt bad about making her host parents cry. When I was a little kid I hurt my brother really bad, I totally obligated his existence. He was crying and I realized what a bad brother I was, Instead He bullies me.

Magnus

Is your Brother older or younger that you?

Ryo

9/22/2020 04:07:21 pm

I made a connection to the book One For The Murphys. I was fighting with my sister and I grabbed her on her head really hard because I got mad at her so she started crying. This is the connection that I made.

Today when when we where reading the book One For The Murphy's. There was this part when Carly made Ms. Murphy cry. One connection I am is when I was little I started getting mad at my sister because she took my toy, so I think I used a really big thomas the train toy and hit it at my sisters nose and it started bleeding. I didn't know why I had to do that to my sister when I was younger. But if I did it to her right now I I would feel sorry because you don't hit people when you are angry. Thank you for reading.

I like how you made the paragraph because it’s well detailed and descriptive but for your connection isn’t it I have instead of I am

Trevor

As we read "One For The Murphy's" today, I made a connection to the part when Carley makes Mrs. Murphy cry. It reminded me of whenever Aaron cries because I didn't want to play with him (he doesn't do this anymore), or I broke a promise that I had made. He feels like I don't care about him ( I know because I hear him tell my parents) and I agree. If someone promised me something and broke that promise, I would be sad too. Whenever I make him sad I always feel really bad. I feel like I am the worst sibling ever. In the end though, he calms down and I can apologize. Sometimes though, I don't feel like I did anything wrong and I don't feel bad and I don't apologize willingly. Sometimes I don't even apologize and that makes Aaron very unhappy. So that was my connection. Thanks for Reading!

The connection I made about a scene in the book One For The Murphy's is when Mrs. Murphy was crying. I also have a personal experience that my sister made me cry. Precisely, she made me cry by not listening to me when I was trying to help her homework. I tried very hard explaining it, but she did not even try to listen to me or think about the question herself. I eventually got frustrated and started to cry because of my frustration. Later, my sister used over three hours to finish her work. I think she deserved it because she did not listen or tried to understand what I was telling her. Thank you for reading!

When Carly felt bad about making Ms. Murphy cry it reminded me of when my dad would not pick up my moms phone calls and she would worry and some times cry, and that would make me feel bad about my mom. It also reminds me of when my sister misbehaves and my dad punishes her by taking all her toys away, when she cries I feel bad about her. thanks for reading!

@ Everyone - I am looking forward to reading everyone's post tonight!

I made a connection to Carley since I usually make people cry. Well not exactly on purpose you see, I usually talk the truth and I think some people don’t really like the truth so that was my connection to Carley and One for the Murphy’s.n

When we read "One For The Murphy's" i made a connection when Carly and the two brothers where playing super hero, me and my friends from my other school we always used to play a role play game with a super hero in the story in grade 2 or 3.

Today reading "One for the Murphy's" Carley made Mrs. Murphy cry because of the mean things she said to her. I don't really remember making anyone cry or someone making me cry besides my family but if I were to make someone cry by accident, I would feel really bad and say sorry a couple of times because well, I made them cry and if that were to happen to me I would want someone to comfort me and not to not care at all. That is what I would do if I made someone cry.

Sebastian

9/22/2020 08:50:10 pm

Today when we read One for the Murphy’s. Carley made mrs Murphy cry by saying a lot of mean words and being very disrespectful and rude. I don’t remember making someone cry and if I did I would be very sorry and even show how sorry and I would feel disappointed in myself because i know better than to make someone cry. I also play hide and seek in the dark with my sister and cousins sometimes like when Carley and her step brothers or foster brothers were playing super hero’s and super villain.

Magnus

Today we read a few chapters of One For The Murphy’s. In the book, Carly finds out that she made Ms. Murphy cry by telling her that she does not want her to be nice to her. She said that because she thought it was unusual that Ms. Murphy was very nice to her even though she did something bad. One time I cried because I tripped and ripped a hole through my cheek. This happened when I was in preschool. We went to the hospital to get my cheek stitched. Before the surgery, I was worried if it would hurt and if it would look weird. When the doctors finished stitching my cheek, it did not look strange and the surgery was not painful. So that was my connection to the book and remember to not run when you are not supposed to.

I have not really made many people cry that I can remember. One time that i can remember was when my brother was annoying me so i annoyed him and he hit me. I told him he was very anger-prone and he started crying. I didn't really feel bad because it wasn't my fault and he cries at a lot of stuff.

A connection I made yesterday is when Carly was playing superheroes because I used to do that when I was younger with my class in my old school.

Today we continue to read the book of “One for the Murphy’s”. My first connection is Carly make Mrs. Murphy sad, I feel sad if my dad scolded me when I play video game and forgot eating or forgot everything. And he is scolded me almost two hours! My second connection is when Carly said she woke up to the apple trees to remember she go to the forest before. When I think about apple trees, I will think of the apple tree in my grand-parent’s backyard, I will eat the apples every Fall when the apples are ripe. That my two connections of “One for the Murphy’s”.

As we know, in Chapter 11 Carley Conner made Mrs. Murphy cry because of things she did and say in the restaurant. I felt bad for both because Mrs. Murphy got hurt by the things Carley said and Carley felt guilty as she hurt her when she was just tired of dealing with her life. Last (and only time) I made a person cry was at school, it was a 5th grader who is now in grade 8. To this day I still don’t really know why they cried but I do know I was playing a game with them and a couple other people and they mumbled something and cried and walked away. I don’t know why and if I did hangout with that person again I would but I guess that reason may have not been a great reason, but it was large enough to do that to them so I feel very guilty about it.

Actually, I haven’t cried for a long time. But it was I think the most impressive time. It’s when I was still in China. One day, our teacher said I’m going to performing on stage. We need three pictures to show the cartoon lion. I wanted my friend draw it together with me. Because she is good at art. When I give the picture to the teacher. She said I do it very strive. Said that I can be on stage by myself. Then my friend angry to me. Because she thinks it’s her credit. In order to draw that picture, she was surreptitiously painting even in class. But teacher said it was my credit. Like Carly let Mrs. Murphy cry, Mrs. Murphy won’t to explain to her, but Carley ignores her. I want to explain to her too. but she ignores me whatever I do. I still want to explain to her now. But it's been a long time. Even if I still have her contact information.
