Monday November 8th

Happy Monday! Today in science we set up an experiment that will help us learn how seeds grow. We learned the science term for growing...germinate. We put pea, oat, corn, and bean seeds in a bag with a moist paper towel. We hung our baggies on the window and will now patiently wait for our seeds to grow! In math today the red rhinos worked on solving problems with unknown partners. We used equations and math mountains to solve these problems. The Green Gators worked on solving story problems with extra information and not enough information. In reading workshop today we had a minilesson on how readers read and think at the same time and how they use their schema to make connections between what they are reading and their schema. Ask your child to tell you what schema is! We also welcomed back Marcella today!
