Take some TIME and get to know the busy bees of The Hive!

This afternoon, we were finally able to create our glyphs for the month of September!  I searched far and wide for a fun, new glyph and my search ended on MathWire.com!  I found a "Watch Glyph"

Ok, so maybe you are wondering what a glyph is?  Well, a glyph is a pictorial representation of information that the students are asked for.  We can use glyphs to collect data, form collaborative groups, learn about one another, and just have fun!

Here is the key to this month's glyph:

Do you have some TIME to tell meabout yourself?

Strap edges = age

straight = 8

wavy = 9

jagged = 10

toothed = over 10

Strap color = hair color

Holes in strap = number in family

Face shape = favorite subject

round = Math

triangular = Social Studies

trapezoidal = Science

rectangular = Literacy

Face color = house pets

green = fish

purple = birds

red = dogs

blue = cats

orange = hamsters

yellow = no pets

white = other pets

Hands = birthdate

hour hand = month

minute hand = day

(for example, June 4th would be 6:04)

Hand colors = eye color

Numerals gender

Arabic (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...) = male

Roman (I, II, III, IV, V, ...) =female

Take a look at what it looks like when we are creating our glyphs...and the finished products will be posted soon!  Thanks for stopping by!
