<strong>Day(s) worked or described:</strong> W

<strong>Total hours for week: </strong>between 2.5 and 3

<strong>The School: </strong>Robinson<em>
</em>

<strong>Kind of Work:</strong> Project Prep

<strong>Main Report or Narrative: </strong>I spent my time on Wednesday making an Excel spreadsheet for Mrs. Hill that basically served as a checklist for the standards that they have to fulfill for each student. I feel like the requirements are related to a grant but I'm not entirely sure. I also started working with the kids on the project they'll complete this quarter. I started preparing for it during the end of last quarter, and the project is basically showing how to solve subtraction problems with manipulatives. Some of the students seem to be having difficulties with borrowing, so demonstrating with blocks provides a good visualization. After one round of working with manipulatives, we're going to pick problems and take pictures of the process of solving the problem with the blocks. The pictures will then be compiled, perhaps into a video, and then they'll narrate their logic in front of the class.

<strong>(Optional) Thought for the week:</strong>

"Not the king's crown, nor the deputed sword

The marshal's truncheon, nor the judge's robe,

Become them with one half so good a grace

As mercy does"

-Shakespeare, <em>Measure for Measure</em>
