Library Is So Fun-Makerspace

Each Friday we are able, we participate in Maker's Space in the Library.  Mrs. Fitch does an amazing job with this!  Kids love it.  Today, we were able to attend for International Dot Day!  

Mrs Fitch read this book to kiddos.  It's all about being creative even when you think you're not.  

Students were able to create their own dot in any way they'd like using lots of supplies.

 

Some used an app to help make their dot come to life!!

I was so impressed with what they came up with!  

What a fun way to end a Friday!!! 

Math Fun

We have had so much fun in math this week.  Students worked in partners on a math investigative problem that took two days.  I was super impressed with how they persevered and didn't give up when it got hard.  We worked to "crack a math code".  Be sure and ask your child about this and how it helped them understand place value even more.  

A couple groups even wanted to share their strategies!  

On a side note, last Friday, we met some new friends that are in our school.  A couple of these sweet kiddos will be joining us for music.  Their teacher, Ms. Edgar, wanted to come introduce them to our class and answer any questions our class had.  The whole conversation gave me goosebumps.  Your kids are amazing.  They were beyond empathetic and kind to this class.  We see them throughout the building and our class waves and says hi to them by name.  It warms my heart.  

You parents are raising some amazing kiddos and I feel so lucky to share my days with them.
