In honor of the upcoming SuperBowl, we football-ed it up in the classroom! Our main learning focus was putting together our secret measurement playbook. In our playbook we took notes on measuring length, perimeter, capacity, weight, and time. We also had activities to practice each of these important measuring skills. The students worked very hard but I don't think they realized it...we were having too much fun.
With all this measuring work going on....I promise that I didn't ignore our English language arts objectives. After assigning referee signals to different punctuation marks, we edited and read sentences with our signals. We also played a game on our mini football fields where students could earn yards by identifying a sentence as simple, compound, or complex. Touchdown!
