Making Change

During math today, we worked at making change. We used dollars and dimes to "buy" items. Then our partner, the shop keeper, gave us change using pennies.

Guest Reader


Mrs. Dominski came to read to us today. She read some really cool books! She even read How to be a Pirate to get us ready Spring Fling.

Math With Tangrams





























We read Grandfather Tang's Story by Ann Tompert. It is a story told with tangrams. The students then got to use 7 tangrams to recreate the animals from the story. Some of these puzzles were very tricky!
