Today was a big day in 4th grade...Battle day!!  We are so proud of our representatives who led Team Wilkinson to a 3rd place finish in Battle of the Books.  We are also proud of the many others that diligently read in order to tryout for the team and our cheering squad who supported us this morning. 

Way to go Team!!!

"Wonder"ful Volunteers!!!

Special thanks to Mrs. Kroll and Mrs. Billion for giving our hallway a makeover this afternoon!!   Team Wilkinson is no short of obsessed with our read aloud, "Wonder" by RJ Palacio; today our helpers prepared a fabulous display for our work in connection to the story.  

Ask your child about how the theme (Choose kind) has developed over the course of the story so far.  Looking forward to sharing the end of the story with the Team next week...although I will sure miss the deep conversations we share over Auggie's experiences.  I imagine these will leave lasting impressions with our kids about acceptance and kindness towards all.  

Thanks again to our volunteers, we LOVE our board!!!!

Kahoot! Reviews

Team--
  Here are directions that will allow you access to my Kahoot! account, so you can play some review games with your child, if you want!  You will need 2 devices (or 1 computer and 1 device).

On one device go to : www.create.kahoot.it
1.  Log in as Ms. Wilkinson:
usnm- kerri.Wilkinson@Oldham.kyschools.us
pw - KWtigers13
2.  Select a Unit 9 Review (there are about 15 created by students this week; I revised as frequently as I could for errors, but I image there are a few I couldn't remember encountering during class today)
3.  Hit purple "PLAY" button
4.  Hit "Launch"
5.  A pin number will then appear for your child to use on their device
***This device is the facilitator...you can advance the quiz by question and skip problems***

On the student device: www.kahoot.it
1.  Enter the pin number on the facilitator and select "Enter"
2.  Give yourself a nickname
3.  Wait for your facilitator to hit start on their device

The student device only allows them to select an answer...they need to be able to see the question using the facilitators screen.

Kiddos are free to play as many games as they want.  Please remind them to log me out of the account when they are finished, so we don't get locked out!

Have fun!!!
