What We Are Learning
- Kindergarten is working on letter review. In math, Kindergarten played a game using shape and positional language to describe and re-create pattern-block designs. They played “Subtraction Top-It”.
- First Graders used place value to mentally add and subtract 10 from a given number. They also had their Unit 8 Math Assessment.
- Second Graders had their Unit 8 Math Assessment. They also explored equal shares of different shapes. They were introduced to fraction vocabulary. They used pattern blocks to divide shapes, and to make number lines.
