in Technology, she made this self-portrait.
This is a patterned Anansi the Spider. She usually enjoys doing more complicated patterns, but for this she kept it simple.
This is word problem/story they got to create as part of their SALMON unit. She dictated the story to the teacher, after having created its visual representation.
Here is the story.I guess it doesn't work with the picture, so I am typing it over.
6 big salmon were ready to come home to the river. They started. After a while, they heard some roaring noise. A bear was looking down at the salmon. He got 1 of them., but the others kept swimming.
They swam for one hour without anything happening to them. But then they saw a fish net. 1 of the fish just went up to it. He wanted to explore the fish net. He had never seen one before. he got caught in the fish net. But the other four kept on swimming.
Soon they would reach the hatchery. Three of them were so excited, they started to swim extra fast! Then they were back to the hatchery. They were making nests for their eggs. The other salmon was still not in the right place to lay its eggs. It swam and swam and swam until it reached the others, and it began making a redd, too!
How many salmon survived the journey back to their spawing grounds?
6-1-1=4.
This is another word problem/story. Arantxa's work is easy to spot in her classroom because her stories are the longest. Her teacher says she can barely keep up with her dictated stories. She continues to be an obsessive story teller. Some other kids have more complicated equations. This was Halloween themed.
This is her story. Can it be read? Do I need to transctibe it again?
This is a mirror image Jack'o-lantern.
This is another Technology project, "things I like". That includes our home and family, mermaids, painting, unicorns and castles, reading, etc.
Finally, a collection of SOME of the various items she makes during "choice" time. There are a ton of assorted magic wands, fans, crowns, boxes, inventions, etc.
