Math: Coins

Students were partnered up into groups. They went around the classroom and found baggies with coins in them. Their objective was to count the coins and find the overall value.

Math: Comparing & Ordering Numbers

This week in Math we are working on comparing and ordering numbers. For practice, students were paired up and had a baggie with numbers and a die. They rolled their die and depending on the number they either ordered the numbers from least to greatest OR greatest to least.

I snapped a few photos of students while they were working.

Social Studies: Important People in History

This week we have been discussing important people in History. To help build our Teamwork skills (this month's character trait) I had table groups work together to read about a person form history and write down their important facts. They will be presenting the information to the class later this week.

I am so excited when I see how well they work together. I know it will be a wonderful year!
