January 29, 2013

Today was another day filled with loads of learning.  We continued look and analyzing poems as a reader and writer.  We also continued exploring using models to help build our strategies for addition in math. I am trying to use the vocabulary to build understanding for math and reading, so they should be coming home trying to explain some difficult words.  Today we were using algorithm, stanzas, haiku, and line breaks.  These might be some new to you or you heard them.  Please see if they can explain tonight and even later this week.  During math we had a blast with our class visitor Mrs. Schultze came to explore two digit addition with us.  We had a blast modeling using base ten blocks, unfix cubes, and drawing a picture.  Then we closed our day with starting our Native American unit in Social Studies.
My Top Banana is Cydney, Nicholas had a great regin as a Top Banana, but it is time for a new head monkey.  They love this and I do too.  We learned that Cydney loves pizza and thinks it is yummy, I do too.  We found out she loves to dance and watches the show Jessie.  When asked why she enjoys the show she stated, "It is fun."
