Media Center Celebration!
It was an exciting day on Tuesday as everyone in our class remembered to return their library books! Mrs. Moses rewarded us with taco smelly bookmarks and let us use her library "lovies". Great work!
Holiday Cards
Have you been to Dedham Savings Bank lately? If so, you may have seen some of the finalists in their annual holiday card contest! Congratulations to Jason and Landry whose cards are proudly on display!
Literacy
Last week in Literacy we read the book Little Panda by Joanne Ryder. This nonfiction text helped us learn about the real life panda, Hua Mei, who was born at the San Diego Zoo in 1999. As an extension of this book, we also enjoyed watching the San Diego Zoo's panda cam! If you are interested in viewing the panda cam (and other animal cams too!) click here!
The class had a great time making their own panda projects at the Creation Station center!
The class also enjoyed participating in many engaging Fundations review activities which included making their own baby echo puppets and playing Scoot!
Math
Subtraction was our major focus in math last week and the children did a fantastic job developing their understanding of this sometimes tricky concept! We practiced solving subtraction number sentences that included the minus and equals signs, and also learned that you can cross off objects in a picture to show "taking away".
The students above are working hard to solve subtraction number sentences.
Thanks so much for taking a peek at our week! Please check back soon to see all that is new in Room 202!
