Burgeoning Mathematicians!
This week I would like to highlight the great work our students and teachers are doing during Number Corner. Students are engaged in mathematical discourse with peers, finding patterns, and using flexible strategies to solve problems. They are already building skills with their number sense and fluency. Students have also been focusing hard on their Star and Acadience assessments this week and we are so proud of them!
