We can represent numbers in many different ways


In math we have been working in place value. We used a triangle mat to show 3 digit numbers in standard form, word form, and expanded form. The children also built the numbers with base ten blocks, drew the symbols for the numbers, & identified how many hundreds, tens, and ones were in each number. 







Our Citizen Project


The children have worked very hard to create a project that symbolizes the many places I which we are citizens. It shows that we are citizens of our house, our school, our city, our state, our country, our continent, and our planet.

Happy Halloween!

We had a great time at our Halloween Party!  The children enjoyed making a candy corn necklace, creating a ghostly craft, dancing along to a few Just Dance for Kids songs, and decorating a cookie and having a snack.  THANK YOU to all the moms, dads, and other adults that came to help us!  Check us out...






















 Even Mrs. Kirkwood joined in for a little dancing!

It's raining, it pouring... But we need a brain break!

Today it was raining at the time we take our short outdoor brain break.  So instead we gave our brains a break and our bodies some exercise by DANCING!!!!  We danced along to a few Just Dance Kids songs and it was fun!  Our class can sure move and groove!   After a few minutes of dancing the students were ready to get settled and stay focused for their last lesson of the day...
