Happy First Day of Spring

Social Studies homework tonight due back tomorrow.  Students are asking one question and making one connection to the article, "Boat Ride to a Better Life"  I'm looking for evidence of deep thinking. We read, 'The Three Questions' this morning.  The young boy is asking his friends for the answers to this three questions.  We learned that the answers to his questions weren't right there in front of him, that not all questions have answers and those are probably the best ones of all!!

Creating and solving problems that involve multiplication was our task this morning.  We pulled numbers from the problem, estimated, wrote the equation and then solved in more than one way.  Experience connecting with real-worl situations is important to help students through the process.  Students then had the opportunity to write their own problems and have a friend solve.
Multiplication test Thursday morning.

No school Friday - system wide Professional Development Day
