What an exciting week it has been! I am so proud of the student's hard work and the way they are already working together as a team! This is going to be a wonderful year! I am including this week's spelling words because this will be a four day week. Normally the spelling words will only be on the student's homework packet that they bring home on Mondays.We will have a spelling test this Friday.
I am also including some pictures from "Millions Day" which we had on Friday. We spent several days making thousands cubes and "super flats" that were equal to 100,00 cubes a piece. On Friday the classes combined all of their "super flats" in the hallway and made a representation of a million. You can see it in the fourth grade rotunda. We also calculated how long it would take to tap a pencil one million times, and read the wonderful book, How Much is a Million? It was a fun-filled day and the students showed a great deal of enthusiasm for these activities. Enjoy the pictures!
