Happy Star Wars day!
This morning we worked on our story writing and finished record ourselves on Photobooth. We are working on trying to break our stories up on to lots of pages to keep our reader in suspense. We looked at some books last week to see how other authors do this and now we are trying to do it ourselves. Hopefully our books will be real page-turners!
In math the grade 1's kept working on addition and subtraction stories. The grade 2's worked on using our "exploded number" strategy for 2-digit addition. We are going to explore three different strategies for adding that help us to see what is happening "behind the scenes" when we add using the traditional algorithm.
This afternoon we tried to get our dioramas finished. We are planning to open an Animal Museum next week. Once we have the date finalized we will let you know. If you are available you will be invited to come visit our museum!
Tomorrow is the Volunteer Tea. We hope to see many of you there. We will be singing some of our songs as part of the performance.
Tomorrow our helper is: Emma
