It's mid-week, and we are on a roll!

We continued working with our multiplicative comparisons today.  Students used models to demonstrate how grouping and multiplication changes place value.  They will be working on this tonight for homework.  Here is a picture that may help if they get stuck:

We enjoyed a science lesson with Ms. Theisen.  She helped us come up with a deeper meaning of ecosystem and all of the "things" that may be a part of them.  Ask your child to tell you more!

Students began to think of ideas for personal narratives.  They were asked to generate a list of possible writing topics from their remembered life.

Stay tuned for updates about MAP testing.  I will post them as soon as I receive them.
