Week of September 16th, 2013

We worked in buddies to write pages for our classroom book.  The book is about using manners in our classroom.  It was inspired by the books "What Do You Say, Dear?" and "What Do You Do, Dear?"  We got to use water colors to illustrate our books!  They are hanging in the hallway, so check them out!

We played a math game that helped us use a number line and think about the order of numbers!

We started showing our math thinking when solving addition story problems.  We can use pictures, words, or numbers to show our thinking.  Someone should be able to look at our work and understand our math thinking.

Mr. Bouchard came in to teach us about the iPads.  Students got to try out a math app. 

We met our "paws" points goal, so we celebrated by watching a short movie based on Eric Carle stories!

We started up our listening center during Daily 5 time.  We can use the computers, ipad, and laptop for the listening center.  Now we have 3 choices during daily 5.  Only 2 more choices left to go!

We had E.L.F.  We learned about spiders!  Thanks to the parents who helped out!

It was great to see everyone who came to Open House!
