I hope you had a restful and relaxing vacation with your family. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces and get back into routine.
This week we concluded our unit of measurement by informally exploring the concept of proportions. Using Jim and the Beanstalk, students used pictures of "giant" sized objects to measure other objects such as a rake, ladder, and door. Next week we will take an end of unit assessment and begin a short, focused unit on money.
Today we enjoyed a wonderful field trip to the Flynn to see Rosie Revere, Engineer! and Friends.
We are looking forward to our Taiko Drumming residency next week! Today we attended a performance by the drummers at the kick-off assembly. Thanks to our wonderful PTO for giving our school this opportunity!
