Addition Facts

The students have been working hard to practice their fluency of their addition facts. Today in math, they rotated through different stations to play games that helped them fine tune those skills. You can help by quizzing your child at home to help them continue to build their understanding of their basic facts. Plus nine, eight, seven and six problems tend to be the trickiest!





Being Thankful

Today we completed our thankful pumpkins and read a Thanksgiving poem called Turkey Troubles, during our literacy time. The students did a very nice job reflecting on what they are thankful for!
