Monday, January 13
Welcome to a new, cold week! A reminder that chilly temperatures are forecast all week long, so students should expect a lot of blue days, but be dressed to be outside just in case. I apologize for the lack of posts at the end of last week; I was absent due to illness. I would encourage you to read Ms. Williamson's blog posts for last Thursday and Friday, as they offer a good summary of our learning and include some really helpful links/resources, particularly for Math.
Today in Math we reviewed strategies and vocabulary for basic multiplication and division, and then worked on a textbook page to demonstrate our understanding. We also discussed why we can't divide by zero. In Language Arts we worked on our Decade Writing, had time to read and work on unfinished work, had our regular Circle sharing time, and continued reading The Boundless. In Social Studies we continued with our Interior Plains region jot notes.
