What We Are Learning
Math: Measurement is sometimes a hard concept to understand. We are working with all learners to continue learning and moving from nonstandard units( cubes, pencils, popsicle stick, etc.) to practice comparing and understanding foundational concepts and moving towards standard measurement (inches, feet, centimeters, meters). Finally learners will analyze measurements by making comparisons.
Projects: We are continuing to work on projects creating books, displays, and other things to show our learning. Ask your child where they are in their project!
