We've had a spook-tacular week here at Rick Marcotte Central School. We had a super time celebrating the season with some yummy snacks and fall crafts. A huge THANK YOU to all of those families who donated their time or supplies to our harvest festival. Here is a peek into our fun!
Although we had a lot of fun this week, we also did some serious learning! This week in math, we began a new unit on double digit addition. In this unit, we have practice adding ten and multiples of ten to a number using a 100's grid and an open number line. Then, we learned that when we are adding ones to a double digit number, one helpful strategy is to first add to the nearest decade number, then add the leftover ones. We are creating a strong foundation for double digit addition!
Other Things to Ask Your Child About:
- The Kingdom of Wrenly
- Using KidsInfoBits to start our new research unit
- Landforms and bodies of water
- Measuring in Popsicle sticks and unifix cubes
- Telling time on an analog and digital clock
Reminders:
Please send back your conference forms as soon as possible so I can notify families in plenty of time! I look forward to meeting with you to brag about your fabulous children!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Kelly
