Today we are doing the math review in
our textbooks! We will be doing a lot of review exercises and review sheets
before our unit test on Wednesday. We spent a lot of time counting money, and
making different amounts using quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies. This
really helped the students, as I found they had some trouble understanding this
concept of adding money together.

Today we
are working on retelling a story! I am noticing that majority of student’s do
not use enough detail when retelling a story. We are going to on this as class!
We read the story Hansel and Gretel, and the students filled out a retelling
worksheet. They identified the character, the setting, the problem, the
solution, and the sequence of events!
Have a
great evening!
