Monday learning




In Math today, students began a describing numbers activity. They used the 100 chart to help them decribe the location of a number. We played a mystery number game and talked about how we can find that number on our chart. We crossed out numbers as we guessed. We used different strategies to help us. We learned that the numbers before the mystery number are smaller. 

The numbers after the mystery number get bigger. We are using those words to help us as we play the describing game. We also used other strategies to help us determine what Frank's mystery number is. We will play this game again tomorrow!









In Science we continued to work on our describing animals activity. Using our descriptive writing chart, the students finished describing their animal using their eyes and hands. They came up with many different words to describe their animals.

A reminder that tomorrow we will be getting a visit from Scientists in the Schools! We will be exploring movement by investigating and experimenting with different types of structures. A BIG thank you to our volunteers who will be joining us tomorrow morning. Your help is very much appreciated!
