Highlights
The grade 2 and kindergarten classes hosted
our assembly this morning, which focused on Earth Day and living creatures. Students should be proud of all their hard
work and effort!
In Math, we wrote riddles about different 3-D
objects (spheres, pyramids, cubes, rectangular prisms, cones, and
cylinders). We also sorted these objects
based on different attributes (e.g., number of faces and vertices, whether the
objects have curves, or if they can roll, stack, or slide).
We learned about the Great Pacific Garbage
patch and why it is important to reduce, reuse and recycle.
In Science, we started our unit on Boats and
Buoyancy. We made predictions about what
objects will sink or float. Next week,
we will begin testing some of our predictions.

do not have to count with your fingers or use a number chart?
