We are collecting brown egg cartons (not styrofoam) for some art projects we will be working on! Please send them to school if you have any!
This week in math we created our own napping houses. We drew our families in our napping houses and wrote an equation to answer the question "how many legs are in your napping house?". After, we traded napping houses with a partner and answered the same question looking at a different napping house than ours. We are working on completing number sentences that match our math problem, and then being able to explain our thinking to someone else. For example, if my napping house has me, my dad, my mom, my 2 sisters, and a pet dog my equation could be:
How many legs in my napping house?
2+2+2+2+2+2= 12
I know how to count by 2 to get 12.
or
4+4+4= 12
I grouped me and my dad together to make 4. I grouped my mom and sister together to make 4.
I grouped my sister and my dog together to make 4.
4+4+4=12
I know 4+4=8. So 4 more makes 12.
Today in science we started researching about coyotes. We wrote and drew pictures of what we know on sticky notes and made a list of facts. We researched and listened to some facts about coyotes from a website, and also watched a video of a coyote howling! After, we did a guided drawing of a coyote. We are excited to continue our study of coyotes and other animals.
