Hello!
Although it was a short week, I wanted to give you a few notes of what we have been up to 🙂
- Last week we started a mini store. Students are given $4.00 in fake coins and bills to buy different supplies they may want to add to their shelf! They can buy a new marker to replace one that has dried out, a mechanical pencil, a replacement crayon for one that went missing, or maybe they want a new colorful ruler! This has been fun AND a great practice with money. Students are responsible for counting their money upfront to be sure they have $4.00, keeping track of how much they are spending in total, and then giving the right amount/asking for the correct amount of change.
- We acted out what has happened in the last few chapters of Holes! Now that the recent chapters are solidified in our memories, we are confident that we will be able to pick up where we left off, even with a little break from reading together as a class 🙂
- This week we finished our final car color graphs. Then we asked each other questions to practice reading bar graphs!
- No one has solved this one yet…can you find a solution for this week’s popsicle stick challenge?!
- More fun from the week
Have a great long weekend!
