Today was our first day of PUMPKIN WEEK! We have been waiting so long for this awesome week! Today we put together our pumpkin books and "met" our table pumpkins. Then each student drew a picture of their pumpkin in their book. We are lucky to have pumpkins of all shapes and sizes! Our last pumpkin activity for the day was measuring the height of our pumpkins. Here are some pictures of the table groups showing how many cubes it took to measure their pumpkins.
Every day we participate in a 30 minute segment called "Champion's Review." During this time we review different math concepts, like tens and ones, tens frames, tally marks, weather, 120 charts, graphing, and more. This past week we have been encouraging the students to write complete sentences about the weather. Two of our students, JW and EK, wrote awesome sentences!
Last week we started learning about fact families. Pictured below is the chart we are using to anchor our learning in the classroom. You can use the chart at home as a reference for your child, as well!
