The second graders each got a plastic egg filled with some sort of material (felt, paper, paperclips, macaroni, etc.) and had to keep their mouths silent as they shook their eggs around the room. Their goal was to find the classmate whose egg contents matched theirs...using only their ears. This was a good challenge for the students' listening ears (and silent mouths)!
The third graders practiced identifying different time signatures with their eyes and ears this month. One of our visual/reading practice activities involved working with a partner to divide a bag of eggs into 2/4, 3/4, and 4/4 time signature piles.
