These past few weeks our second and third graders have been doing their best in the classroom while we battle through this heat wave. Through these past few days our classroom has gotten up to 88 degrees, whew that is HOT! To battle this heat wave and continue to learn, we tried a couple different things. First off, one day we traveled to the gym, which was surprisingly a bit cooler than our classroom. In the gym we played a game called Math Madness. In this game, students work in teams to solve as many math problems as they can. The team to finish while getting all of the problems correct, wins! Below is a video of the second and third graders playing this game in the gym.
As the day wore on, our classroom continued to get hotter, so to once again battle the heat, students laid out on the floor of the classroom while I read one of our favorite Roald Dahl books to them: The Witches. Students LOVE listening to this story and imagining the characters come to life. Below is a picture of our fun story time!
Overall, I think we have battled through this heat wave pretty well while we continued to learn and have fun in our classroom!
