Happy Friday!

As the oldest kids on campus today, we joined Peggy's class for reading buddies. I love to see the way the students so flawlessly step up as leaders when working with the kindergartners. It's great for the class to work on reading aloud to such a welcoming audience. 










Welcome to Bobville, our playground village based on Roxaboxen, by Alice McLerran. Every student on Team 34 had a role in the build. The students are clearly excited about the book so I decided that we will use it as the basis of our cartography unit, combining social studies and lots of useful math skills (proportion, multiplication, measurement, etc.)


Goofballs :)


CCS is so graciously sending me to a training with Making Math Real this weekend. It's a fantastic, multi-sensory mathematics program. I'll let you know how it goes!  http://www.makingmathreal.org
