Graphing, Google Drive, Kahoot


Dear 4EX Families and Friends,

I hope this post finds you all well. I cannot believe we have been in school for almost 100 days?!? Your 4th grader is now closer to 5th grade! Wow!! 👏🏻 

Our days in 4EX are jam packed with curriculum learning. After a month of teaching  long division, we have transitioned into graphing. This unit will have students analyzing data for bar graphs, double bar graphs, line graphs, double line graphs, with a review of other previously taught graphs from 3rd grade. 

I found this game, Kahoot, that was fun! A question is displayed on the projector and the students have 4 multiple choice options for an answer. They use a Chromebook  to choose their answer. The students had fun and we'll be sure to play again . 

When students are typing up their stories on the computer, they use Google Docs in their Drive. Students are really enjoying the process of sharing their document with me because this allows me to comment directly in their document for edits and revisions. They are finding this process "cool!" :)
