Today was another great
day! We are remembering our procedures much better.
We started by finishing any
bell work that was incomplete.
In math we worked with
multiplying 2-digit numbers by 1 number. We showed another way besides
the traditional style. For example, if you have 34 X 5, since 34 written
in expanded form is 30 + 4, then you could multiply 30 by 5 and 4 by 5, then
add those products together to get 170.
In reading we read our book silently.
Then we took our vocabulary words and wrote a sentence or drew a picture for
each word.
In spelling we wrote our
words around a Christmas tree outline.
In social studies we worked
with our newspapers.
The student council is doing
a blanket drive. Any new, or like-new, blankets are appreciated.
