Also, students participated with Names on the Back, asking only yes or no questions to their classmates in order to discover what name was on the back. This works on questioning and process of elimination. Ask your child about his/her name on the back.

Students also have been working on Logic with multistep word problems. We have been doing these as a class. These problems involve multi-step sentences, which students have to read and reread in order to make inferences. These logic problems require students to eliminate items, think in if/then situations, in order to draw conclusions at the end. Next week, students will work on these individually.
