10:10 SQL Database practice

This morning you are going to create the following database, table, and insert this data in:

Once you have this setup raise your hand and I will come over.

I am going to want the following SQL code “run” so we can see if your database works:

  • SELECT * FROM petstable WHERE legalInVermont = 'yes'
  • SELECT * FROM petstable WHERE legalInVermont = 'no'

When we run the first SQL statement we see only pets legal in Vermont.

When we run the second SQL statement we see only pets illegal in Vermont.

Once you are checked off for this, you can move on to ….

2:20 Dailies

2:25 “19 Minutes”

4 of 5 days per week we will end our day in CAWD with the “19 Minutes” of silent reading. Closing down our day with silent reading provides many benefits:

  • Improve Literacy Skills / Reading Stamina
  • Create space for a small reading meditation where we can disconnect from the world and get lost in a story
  • Unplug

At 2:44 each day I will come to 3 students and ask for a 1 sentence explanation of what happened in your story over that day’s reading session. It is neat to hear little pockets of a story, here and there.

2:45 Dismissal
