1st day of Spring!

We played another math game called "Race to the Bank." Coin recognition can be quite challenging!

Estimation

Mrs. Moro had the best idea. She took this jar and filled it with M&Ms.




She then called the students to her back table to make their estimations on the amount of candy in the jar. We told them the closest guesser would get all the M&Ms.

The anticipation was too much for some students!

The winners!!



Teeth and time

Today we had 2 students lose their teeth! It was quite an eventful day in our classroom.





I purchased this book yesterday from our school's book fair. I thought it was the perfect time to read it to the class!


We have also been working on telling time.

The Sight Word King

Every student has their own set of sight word cards. When they get the word correct, I put a little dot under it. They love to watch the amount of dots add up on their cards!

Math Train Game

This is a math game we use to practice our addition and subtraction. Everyone starts with their "train" of 10 cars. The purpose of the game is to make your train disappear completely by rolling the minus number (if you roll the addition numbers, then you add more cars to your train).

Love my little readers

This age is the most rewarding grade level to teach!! They progress so rapidly and are always eager to learn. My students LOVE to read all the time and it makes me so happy!! This is the best part of my job (besides the constant hugs and never-ending compliments).
