Thirty-First Day of School

In Science today, we investigated different liquids to generate a list of some of their properties (tested). We discussed how our descriptions and words related to the language of the discipline through words like translucent, transparent, opaque, and viscous.

Yesterday we worked in pairs to complete our second math report of the year. We counted and recorded our counting methods of various collections of small items in order to build number sense (1.NB.1; 1.NB.2). Our focus for the activity was working cooperatively, planning, and choosing appropriate counting tools. The focus of subsequent counting reports will be accuracy and replicability of recorded data.

We will take Math Topic 3 test on Wednesday.

At home activity: practice spelling words with initial consonant blends like, sl-, cl-, bl-, fl-, st-.
