ELA (reading) with Mr. Yearick
This week we read the story "Click, Clack, Moo" and discussed plot. We also practiced our phonics/ spelling by making new words that reviewed some previous concepts and the upcoming consonant blends.
Next week we'll read a story about a young artist, and discuss authors purpose. Well also review irregular plurals.

Math ARRAYS
As in introduction and hands-on experience to multiplication, we played a game of "build an array" using dice and blocks.
It's a 5 by 6 or 5 X 6
5 rows or groups...6 in each row...
We also used geoboards to explore the same concept.
The product is 12 in a 4 X 3 array!
We will also be practicing the opposite of this operation... division! And we'll call it "equal sharing". Watch for our practice this week.
