Math is Magnificent!

As part of our daily math curriculum, students work with partners to solve math problems and equations.  The students use counters, cubes, or play games to help them learn new math skills.  The students below are playing an addition game while practicing the "count on" strategy.  Who knew learning could be fun??  :)

Literacy "Work" Stations

The students are becoming pros at our literacy stations!  Students do about three stations each day while I work with small guided reading groups.  Our stations include Read to Self, Work on Writing, Buddy Read, Handwriting, Poetry Station, Classroom Library, Listening Station, and iPads.  Take a look at these students working hard, learning, and having fun!

Also ask your child WHY it is important for us to do our stations.  :)
