Les Mots and The Muffin Code

Today we started out with our words for the week. As we made notes and noticings, our powers of observation allowed us to identify synonyms, familiar endings (-er, -or) that change verbs to nouns, and word parts that made us wonder (vis-).

Challenge: What other words can you think of that contain that part?

Visuwords: vision

Etymology Online: vision

We also continued our exploration of mathematical structures and patterns in an effort to solve problems, and we got to use our secret agent powers to “crack the muffin code.”
While showing our thinking was especially important, we also:

  • made mistakes and learned from them.
  • were open-minded and changed our thinking.
  • asked questions.
  • listened to others’ ideas to consider different points of view.
