Today the students started working through math groups. Each group teaches a new way to represent numbers. Grade 1 students are representing numbers up to 20, and beyond if they are ready (this is not an expectation for Grade 1). Grade 2 students represent numbers to 100, and beyond if they are ready (this is not an expectation for grade 2)
The Kindness Pod was looking at the sorting/classifying of the sticky notes they created regarding "Who/What is in the coulee" . Many questions arose from our conversations and activities. The students are wondering, "are humans animals?". What do you think? Discuss and share your conversations tomorrow. The second question we are asking you to consider is, "Do you and your family use the Twelve Mile Coulee? How often and what do you do there?"
Today during our literacy time, many students started learning some very specific reading comprehension strategies. We started looking at "Lips the Fish" and "Eagle Eye". Lips the Fish is where students look at the first letter of the word and have their lips form that sound. Eagle Eye is where they use the pictures from the book they are reading to help them figure out possibilities for that word and think of what would make sense.
