Everyone has officially passed 2 digit subtraction and money with 90% or higher. We did our first Non Fiction Summary. I was impressed!!! The students really thought about the answers and worked hard.. They were not perfect, but the students did better than I expected. You will see lots of marks on their papers as we talked about and ask questions to see how they could improve. You will see how I crossed off lots of words. I am trying to model how good writers and thinkers are. That it is OK to make a mistake and make changes. These summaries are not final publish work. We are PRACTICING and trying to become better. We are in the middle of our clock unit and the hardest part for the children is to do quarter after and quarter till. Any help at home with this would be great!
We are going to be making our HABITATS in Science and every student will need to bring a shoebox and at least 1 batch of salt dough. Any extra silk or plastic flowers and greenery that is no longer needed at home would be appreciated.
Salt Dough
3 cups of flour
2 cups of salt
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 cup of water (put in a zip lock bag)
