Another thank you to everyone for coming to the Winter Open House! I heard the performance was wonderful and everyone enjoyed seeing the Health projects. I was very impressed with the student projects and presentations. Every student did an amazing job of teaching their classmates about a disease. Following are pictures of each student presenting!
In the Classroom
In math this week, we continued to explore multiplication. Students studied a visual representation of multiplication called an array. Each student cut out and labeled their own set of array cards that will be used throughout the unit to practice multiplication.
Mrs. Finke visited our classroom this week to do one final health activity. Students were given an outline of a body and a bag of various materials. They were asked to use the materials in any way they wanted to show models of the body defenders. The students were very creative and able to show their understanding of the different defenses.
In writing, we started our next project with non-fiction writing. Each student will be writing an expert piece. So far, we have brainstormed topics we are already experts for which we are already experts. We have completed all the lowercase cursive letters! We will begin the capital letters after Winter break.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday and Winter break!
