Week one is in the books!
We had an amazing first week. I have enjoyed getting to know each child and watching them grow already as we've started to learn new content.
This week we've learned:
- Math: 2's multiplication
- ELA (english language arts):
- How to read a text and use evidence to prove our answers
- We read Judy Moody Is In A Mood and compared her first day of 3rd grade with ours
- Science: Parts of a plant (roots, stem and leaves) and their functions

Next week we will:
- Math:

- Review addition with regrouping (IE. 347+185)

A: Roots, stems & leaves (see example below)

A: Answers may vary.
Q: What are some things that you are planning to include on your Me Collage?
A: Answers may vary.
