Highlights
-We had our Scientists in School presentation Wednesday
morning. Thank you to our parent
volunteers! This was an introductory
activity to our next Science unit on Liquids.
-In Math, we started to work on strategies to add numbers. This week we practiced the “count on”
strategy. For example, when adding, 2+9,
start at the larger number (9) and count 2 more. This is more efficient than starting at 2 and
counting 9 more. We also practiced
quickly recognizing numbers that add to 10.
-We set writing goals and typed them into Iris.
-Ms. Paull read us the story “Last Stop on Market Street” which
deals with the virtues of service and kindness.
-We finished the novel “Midnight on the Moon”
