In the Classroom... 3/29/18
In Math this week we finished up fluency with addition and subtraction. The kids did great solving math facts within 3 minutes and understanding strategies such as doubles, doubles plus one and make a ten. Next week we will focus on the equal sign and understanding its meaning.
Rocks, rocks, rocks! The kids loved sifting rocks to classify them by size. They discovered that sand is a rock even though it is very small. Next week we will explore sand and ways it is used in our world.
Once upon a time.... we are busy planning our fairy tales. Together we are putting together a class fairy tale and the kids are working on their very own that they will publish after track out. They are super excited to become authors!
Our Easter Egg hunt was AWESOME! We had 853 eggs. The kids were able to find 46 eggs each and they had a blast doing it. Thank you guys so much for helping make this a fun and memorable event!
As you can see we are definitely keeping busy here at Willow Springs. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with your family and we will see you back on Monday.
Take Care,
Ms. Gower
