Schedule

We have made a small change to our daily schedule.

Science and Social Studies are switching spots.
We will now have science before lunch and social studies in the afternoon.

In addition, we plan to visit the school library on Mondays.

Student Council

Terrific posters, great speeches, interesting ideas!

What a tough race! So many talented, worthy students!

Painting!

It may still be warm outside, but room 215 is getting ready for fall!
We watercolor painted some leaves to kick off the upcoming season.

Student Council

We have a tough competition this year. 
Eight great students want to represent our class.
We have speeches tomorrow!
Then we'll count the votes and find out who will be our representatives.
Good luck to everyone!

Remember, this election is not a popularity contest, and students should only vote for someone who is ready to work hard, attend meetings, participate in all activities decided by student council, and report back to the class what's happening. 

Addition in Math

In math today, we reviewed the U.S. Traditional Addition method.

We also learned about partial sums addition and column addition.

Some students prefer these methods.  They are allowed to use them if it helps them to get the correct answers.

To learn more and/or review these other addition methods, go to our Everyday Math website.
