Our Week!We have had a very exciting week this week! We got to learn how to do subtraction, learned about possessive nouns, started writing an opinion piece about our favorite playground, learned about silt, went to the Book Fair, AND met our new classroom elf, Snowflake!! The Book FairWe had so much fun exploring and purchasing new books and other fun things in the book fair this week! Math Games and SubtractionWe learned how to play 2 new math games this week! The first one is called Digit Place. In this game we try to guess a secret number by using place value! The second game we learned about is called SALUTE! In this game, we practice our addition facts. We play with three people and cards. One person adds the cards together while the other two hold the cards up to their foreheads. You have to be the first to guess your own card by seeing the other person's card and knowing the sum! This week we also learned how to subtract with 3-Digit numbers. We have been practicing this without regrouping. Science - Learning about SiltWe have been learning all about earth materials and the different sizes of particles of rock. This week we learned about a particle smaller than sand, called silt. We mixed sand and water to separate the silt. SNOWFLAKE THE ELFWe were so excited to have an ELF join us in our classroom! She showed up on December 1st asking us to give her a special name. We voted and her name is SNOWFLAKE! She was so excited about her name that she brought us each a special ticket worth 25! We are so excited to have her and we cannot wait to see what kind of joy she brings to our classroom!
