Labor Day, Dream Job, and Tools...

Today in class we discussed why we would be out of school on Monday, September 6. The students were then asked to write about their "ideal" job when they grow up. Many of the students wrote about becoming entertainers. At the request of one of the students we watched a video performance of the Four Tops. This was exciting and enjoyed by all of the students. In math we discussed what "tools" are needed for specific jobs/careers. Please enjoy the video and blog with your child about the tools used to do your job! Have a safe Labor Day Weekend!

  6. I would need to go to Doctor school to be a doctor. i would need to learn how to use the tool that taps your knee and the blood pressure tool.To be a doctor I would need a thermometer to look inside ears and check temperature. Maybe I could learn to take x-rays to look inside a body and see bones.

  11. I really enjoyed the Four Tops dance moves!

    The tools my dad uses for his job are hospital scrubs, surgical mask, gloves and laughing gas. This gas makes a patient go to sleep during surgery. But it does tickle a little.

  12. I want to be a doctor or a veterinarian. If I was a doctor, I will need a petalla hammer to check your reflexes, a stethoscope to listens to your inside sounds, a otoscope to look in your ears, and ophthalmoscope to check your eyes. Also I would need a thermometer and the thing to take your pressure and a scale for your weight. If I was a veterinarian i would need some of the same tools but not all. Carley
