Students had a wonderful week in Lower Elementary! Students were busy at work!
For language jobs, first grade students wrote sentences with prepositions, found synonyms in a thesaurus, and explored words that contained the long e sound. Second graders reviewed plural possessives nouns, identified the correct adverbs in sentences, and put words in ABC order by the second or third letter. Third graders analysed sentences, reviewed plural possessive nouns, and identified the correct use of certain conjunctions.
For math jobs, first grade students completed multiplication problems, rounded numbers to the 100's place, reviewed time to the hour/half hour/quarter hour, and identified the parts of a circle. Second graders identified the parts of a circle, reviewed elapsed time, completed division problems, and solved addition/subtraction word problems. Third graders were introduced to metric conversations, completed problems with each of the four operations, identified the parts of a circle, and solved word problems.
For cultural jobs this week, students began a study of severe weather. Students viewed a video presentation and wrote a definition of a tornado. Students also explored various reasons flags are used. Students then created a flag that represented themselves.
The highlight of our week was our Pi Day celebration on Friday! Pictures to follow!
Next week, students will continue working with word problems, grammar, and math operations. Our third graders are very excited to go to Camp McDowell on Wednesday!
