We had a very fun and busy first week of school.
We read the very popular book Chrysanthemum. It is about a mouse who is named after a flower and the fun her name brings her.
Using this book we learned our new friends names. We made a flower garden with our names. We developed a classroom community that will learn and build memories together.
We explored the world of second grade math by playing math games. These fun simple games will develop the foundation for the mathematicians they will become.
Did they tell you about our silly band-aid lesson?
We talked about being treated fair vs equal and the importance of everyone learning and working at their own pace.
Our math lessons this year will be very hands on. Here we are building a large hundreds chart. It was fun seeing the children problem solving where to put their numbers and working together as a team.
Ta-Da! We are very smart.
