Academic update

PBL Time-

I am so proud of these Busy Bees during PBL time! They are learning so much about winter precipitation, Arctic, Antarctica, climates, animal adaptations and inquiry. We have many projects in the process! Take a look...

Making a model of a salt truck



Making a slide show about clouds using google slides.


Writer's Workshop-
 The students are working hard during Writer's Workshop to create their realistic fiction stories. They are using what they know about fiction writing and bringing their stories to life! Next week they will create a character to be part of a series. They will work on their series writing until Spring Break. 



Math Workshop-
Place value is still the focus for Math Workshop. They are learning to group things by ten, use sticks and cubes to represent a number with base ten blocks and 10 more and 10 less. We will be working on expanded form and double digit addition next week. 

Please continue to encourage your child to go on Dreambox at home. The weekends are a great time for them to try and visit Dreambox.  

Thank you to Rory's mom for being a Mystery Reader on Monday. The kiddos love the Pigeon Books!
