It has been fun getting to know all the wonderful students we have the pleasure working with this year! We have been busy learning classroom routines and getting to know each other.
In Mrs. Danley's math class, we have been reviewing math skills from second grade and refreshing our skills with using number grids, frames and arrows, reading and writing clock times, and organizing data. We occasionally work in "clock partners" to complete some activities and are enjoying learning different math games during which we apply different skills.
In reading, we have worked hard on our launching unit. We have done some sampling of different genres, worked on reading independently to increase our stamina, and are learning how to record our ideas about text with written responses.
Mrs. Danley's writing class has been busy composing narrative pieces and learning how to complete revision assignments. We have also been sharing our pieces with each other and learning how to provide specific, positive feedback.
In Social Studies, we have been enjoying learning different math skills as we travel in our caravans across the world. The students have been completing tasks, collecting artifacts, and getting "fate cards" that affect their travels!
