Pumpkin Reports and Other Things!

Wow what a busy month it has been! Holidays, field trips, projects, career week and more! Here are a few updates on what has been going on in our classroom:

Miss Annie came for a visit and talked to us about Native American life!

The children did a great job sharing their pumpkin book reports! 

(I'm sorry I didn't get to take a picture of every student!)

Fun times working together during math!

 My amazing class got 100% for the library's genre challenge in October! Every student read a mystery book and filled out a genre ticket! Way to go, I'm so proud of all of you!! Mrs. Shaw came by for a visit with an awesome poster that is now outside of our classroom and a little chant for the class. 

Math Stations

Last week, we learned about different strategies to add three addends. Here are some fun math stations the kids did to practice:

Avery and Connor are playing a matching game to practice their addition. 

Christopher and Conner are playing a fun partner addition game using dice!

Mason hard at work rolling three numbers and adding them together.

A favorite station, the SMART board.
The kids match the three addend problems to the answers to reveal a picture.

Three card compare: Zachary and Ava each pull out three cards and add the numbers together. Whoever has the highest sum wins all of the cards!

Another favorite station: computer. Hayden practices his math playing
a greater than, less than game.

Joshua practices adding by putting "craters" on the moon to help him
add the numbers together (a fun game to use during our space unit!).
