This week we have focused on reading the scale, clock, tape measure and thermometer. We focus on reading the number on the scale including the decimal. We practice counting by two's on the thermometer. We practice counting by 5's on the clock. On the tape measure we practice how to read the inches and feet and how to convert inches to feet and feet to yards.
We tie into what is a half when we are performing agility drills. We ask the students how far is halfway, a quarter, 3 quarters, etc. Next is to tie that in with the decimal system. We also need to ask the students to estimate how far in feet is halfway, etc.
Interdisciplinary Teaching- This blog was started as a way of using journals and games in physical education class to enhance and connect the learning in math, language arts and science. Now that I am a science teacher I am finding ways to use physical activity to connect the learning in physical science.
