Today we took advantage of the beautiful weather and went outside for some of our work. We did some follow up work for our Great Lesson earlier this week. Students looked at heiroglyphs and cunieform and then wrote their names in that type of script. We will be going outside for other parts of our learning so please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather. Next week we'll be doing gym outside (first thing in the morning) so please ensure they have appropriate footwear and clothing to be outside.
Number talks are a big part of our math teaching and learning. A number talk is when we talk about numbers, their relationships and our mathematical thinking. Today we worked on a target number. This is when students are given a specific number and have to come up with all the possible questions that could equal that number (using addition, subtraction, or multiplication). It allows students to help explore the relationships between numbers and work at their specific math level.
