Math

Grade 1

The grade 1’s watched a video about time and how to tell time. We reviewed using the big clock how to tell time, and what hand represents hour and what hand represents minutes. I showed various times and had the students tell me what time it is, and students also came up and show the times

Homework

Telling Time worksheets

Grade 2

Today the grade two’s learned how to add ten. The grade 2’s practiced adding 10 using a worksheet. After, we reviewed the worksheet and discussed why adding 10 is easier. Using the big math book pg. 19, we made number sentences based on the 10 frame.

Today the grade 1’s planned their trip to MEXICO!!! We discussed how we could pack for this trip, and what sort of things we would bring. We then discussed how we could sort our planning into what types of clothes they need, what type of toiletries they need, and what other extra things they could bring for fun!! They then had to draw these things in their very own suitcase.
