Click above to watch the video! Today, students started the day off with a drumming class. We were lucky to have a special music instructor who taught the students about different types of drums, how to drum, and how to sing the songs. In math, we continued practicing using the divisibility rules. In writing, Mr. T taught the students about paragraph writing. More specifically, engaging hooks/topic sentences. Later, students learned how to synthesize information for their practice inquiries.

- Today, we continued our research in inquiry and learned how to synthesize information. Students have been 'immersing' themselves in their inquiries and phase 3 (Coalesce) and 4 (Going Public) are upon us.
- Watch the posted video again.
- LEARNING INTENTION: I can explain how what it means to synthesize information.
