Jack's Content Lab Lessons  Welcome to the Content Lab Wiki!

With grades 2, 3, and 5 I am using Math Investigations II now, so each week is pretty much "the next Session" found in the teachers manuals. In 4th grade we're working really hard to complete our tour of the 5 regions of Kentucky, so that we can go back and look more deeply at the people, resources, history, and stories of Kentucky. 4th graders should be finished with their current project in about 3 weeks. 1st Grade and Kindergarten will be using the lab time for reteaching and intervention-like work - when the curriculum map keeps truckin', please let me know what your students still need to practice.

Thank you for your time and support. Creating a wiki like this is very simple. You can create one and use it as your classroom website and post it on Chancey's website. Here's a link to Karen Stone's wiki: Karen's Wiki. Let me or Karen know if you need any WIKI support.

Yours, Jack Jacobs
