Subtraction Wheel
Each week in math we learn at least one new game. Subtraction Wheel helps students work on subtracting from 10, 11, 12 and more.
Measuring in Math
We have been measuring magic beans and the perimeter of special gardens using unifix cubes grouped into trains of 10. This is laying the foundation for standard units of measure.
Building Reading Stamina
It is wonderful to see so many students sustaining their reading attention during reading time. We talk about have a reading "muscle" that we need to work out every day to keep it strong!

Columbus Day
We spent some time this week learning about the important voyage of Christopher Columbus.
Map Fun!
On Thursday, our 4th grade buddies in Ms. Natalie's class invited us to explore together a giant map of Vermont. We played a scavenger hunt to get familiar with the many towns, roads and bodies of water in our state.
Keyboarding
This week we logged into our google accounts and began using a keyboarding program to help kids learn about the proper way to type on a keyboard. This skill will be very helpful as we start typing more of our written pieces this year and in the years to come.

Thank you all for joining us to share our work last week! I just love seeing the kids snuggled up with their parents and feeling so proud.
