Additional Learning Opportunities:

These are activities for students who want to go above and beyond. All of the following activities are optional.

Social Studies/ELA Click on this website to learn more about Thomas Jefferson and Lewis and Clark. http://hstricklandfifth.weebly.com/thomas-jefferson--lewis-and-clark.html I HIGHLY recommend the video I’ve posted on this page. It’s approx. 45 minutes, filmed by National Geographic, and tells the story in a CRAZY exciting way! I watch it and imagine how I would be as a member of the Corps of Discovery (hint- I would NEVER have made it!) Social Studies Challenge Assignments: Watch the video and email me the 10 coolest things you learned from that video. Explore the different links and create a Sway, PowerPoint, poster, or iMovie to reflect on how Lewis and Clarks Corps of Discovery and Journey changed history.

ELA Challenge Assignments: Additional ELA Activities can be found @ http://hstricklandfifth.weebly.com/at-home-learning.html Go to our FlipGrid and post TWENTY replies to someone you haven’t responded to before on ANY topic. Then go post to any of your choice that you haven’t filmed so far. Code: ric2uv and click on the down arrow to see a list of all the topics. Begin a new draft of a NEW story in your good journal! Challenge yourself to rewrite it eight times! Make a pandemic journal as a primary source as we are living history right now! Use these questions to record an entry each day. You might pick one or two to focus each day:

• our family’s trip to the grocery store and “stocking up” • cancelled family vacations, cancelled field trips,

cancelled school • how weird it is to have to “e-learn”? • how are you occupying your time? • how do you feel about this? psyched that you don’t

have to come to school? bored? worried? bummed that you won’t get to see your friends?

• what is changing for you because of this? • what kinds of things are your families thinking, saying,

doing, worried about, etc.? • What mattered to you a few days or a week ago that

now seems irrelevant? Vice versa? § What is your “must have” if you are going to be cooped

up inside for a while? § What are your “binge watch” recommendations? § Where is your new “desk”?

● Juggling, throwing, kicking, or dribbling *remember you can modify each activity and use various types of equipment for each activity.

PICK ELEMENTARY PE Checklist from Coach Cooper Print or keep a record on notebook paper! Fitness component; Students are asked to spend 15-20 minutes a day participating in Physical Activity. Keep in mind the 15 minutes of play is the minimum required, students and families may wish to set a higher amount of time (60 minutes is a great goal). Track your total time of activity each day by logging in the number of minutes spent doing any activity. If your activity is not listed below, fill in at the bottom. Add up the number of minutes each day and see if you reached your goal.

other Total Activity Time

Nutrition component; Students and families can also set a goal of staying well hydrated and making healthy food choices. Try to drink 8 glasses of water a day. Check off each box for each glass of water you drink.

Glasses of water Monday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Tuesday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Wednesday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Thursday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Friday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Saturday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Sunday 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Health component; Remember sleep is an important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and helps the body’s immune system work more efficiently. Make sure to get 8-10 hours of sleep each night. Also remember screen time should be limited before bedtime as the blue light that is emitted from these screens can delay the release of sleep-inducing melatonin, increase alertness, and reset the body's internal clock (or circadian rhythm) to a later schedule.

Exploring Shape Organic shapes

Shape is another one of the Elements of Art! There are two main groups of shapes: Geometric and Organic. This week’s lesson will focus on ORGANIC shapes which are those with irregular borders, like shapes that appear in nature or some that do not have a name like circle, square, etc.… similar to this first example #1.

#1 #2 #3 In this lesson you will need to find some type of paper/light weight cardboard and scissors. Look at picture #2 I would suggest a cardboard food box from your recycling or with permission from your family- from your cabinet J. Cut out just the front or back of the box if you are using a food box. See picture #3 Cut up the paper/box into ORGANIC type shapes. Don’t go crazy making them too small J I think I cut 12? You can see in picture #4

#4 #5 #6 Next, begin to arrange or organize your shapes starting in the middle and work out front there. See picture #5 Leave a little space between the shapes, they should not overlap. Finish the composition using all your shapes similar to picture #6. This composition is ABSTRACT meaning that it does not look like anything realistic. You can stop here and either glue your shape pieces down on a sheet of paper OR dump it back to a pile and try another composition. I continued on to create other ideas that came into my mind as I made my abstract composition that you can now see in the following pictures.

#7 I saw a peacock feather image in my abstract composition so I added more shapes including a geometric oval shape or two to give it more contextual meaning.

#8 Next, I saw an arrow!

#9 I saw a turkey/bird and in

#10 I saw a flower! Then, I put it all in a pile for recycle. Yes, I didn’t glue anything down. I just enjoyed the process of making art today. I hope you enjoy creating some fun shape images. Send some picture images to me if you are able through your homeroom teacher. Take care, make art, and stay healthy! Mrs. Hames
