Social Studies Exploring Mexico Week 1: Who wants to visit Mexico in real life? Comment below.4/24/2020 SOCIAL STUDIES: At the end of each week or as you complete the lesson-you will be asked to design an Instagram post. Pretend you were there and you are captioning your trip and all you seen and learned. This can be done on the template included in the lesson plan or designed on the computer or for my artsy students hand drawn. Please read the directions for the post to be sure to include all the requested information. :) These posts are what I want to see! Please share them with me. Either email a copy or photo of it, text a photo to (616) 723-9052 or share a google doc. ELA: I’d love to see or hear about the assignments you complete! Some of your tasks will be in IXL. For IXL, I will check each person's progress but if you want to send me a quick note saying you finished a particular lesson to celebrate, that works too. For other assignments you can: 1.) submit them in Google Classroom, 2.) you can share your work with me via Google Docs,3.) upload a photo of your work, or 4.) for some assignments, send me an email stating what you worked on during the week. SCIENCE:
Please check out the weekly instruction letter I sent today or access it here. This letter has assignment completion information and what communication I need from you. I would LOVE to hear about your progress on activities, either for items that I will see electronically (such as IXL) or items you are given to help expand your learning that I don't require you to send me.

I hope everyone is staying safe and you have some good news to share with others today. At Pinewood, we are a T.E.A.M, so our goal is to always be teachable, be empowering, be accepting, and stay motivated. The activity I am sharing challenges you to be empowered and stay motivated, while also empowering and motivating others. My own children and I completed this fun activity and I thought many of you might enjoy it as well. Even my husband joined in on the fun and made his own. Perhaps you can get some of your family members to join you in this activity? For this activity, you are going to create your own motivational poster. Follow the link and it will walk you through the steps to complete each task. There are some interesting historical aspects to motivational posters and I learned a fair amount of facts about the popular, "Keep Calm, and Carry On" posters. I posted a photo of the posters my own kids created that we have hanging up to help keep us motivated each day. If you make one, I'd love to see what you came up with (No, this is not for a grade, just for fun). I miss you all!
