100's Day
Our 100's Day was so much fun! We wrote about what we would be like, look like, and what we would do when we are 100 years old. We made an art piece of ourselves as 100 year olds. They are hanging up on our boards and we are so excited for you to see them at our upcoming student lead conferences in March!
In math, we are continuing to work on addition facts, word problems with addition, and double facts. We know that when we are adding two numbers together like 6+2= or 2+6= we should take the bigger number, hold it in our heads, and use the other number to count on that many times.
Here is a song about double facts that we sing in class! Have your child sing it to you :)

Is my work neat?
Can I read my work to the teacher?
Do I have finger spaces?
Do I have sticky letters?
Do I have a capital letter where I should?
Do I have punctuation where I should?
Does it make sense?
Here is a writing checklist we use in class:
