In math ...
We are continuing our unit on Addition and Subtraction in Problem Solving Situations by reading stories and solving problems in our Mathematician's Notebooks. Your child should have brought their Math notebook home this weekend to share. I hope you were able to see what they have been learning so far this year. We will have a problem solving assessment on Friday to see how well we learned and what strategies we are using to help us master concepts.
In Social Studies...
We are learning about maps and globes and how they help us. We are making a map of our bedroom to share with the class. We will also learn about physical characteristics of places and landforms. We will finish this unit on Friday by making a landform of our own on a paper plate. We will use colored icing for rivers and grass and hershey kisses for mountains, chocolate chips for hills and much, much more! What a fun way to learn about maps!
Have a great week!
