Week in Review
Then they edited their writing...
and a partner's writing!
Finally, we took our revisions and made a final draft.
By the end of the challenge, the students had developed so many great problem solving strategies to relate addition and subtraction!
We even got in front of the class and shared how we solved our problems with our partners.
These will all hang in our hallway!
In math, we had a blast practicing subtraction with playdoh SMASH!
Have a fabulous week!

Week in Review
This week was all about wrapping up our second unit!
In writing, we spent a LOT of time going back and revising our work.
We know that we use COPS to check our handwriting:
C - Capital at the beginning but no funky capitals!
O - Organized and neat handwriting
P - Punctuation
S - spelling and making sense
The kids helped me edit my own writing, first.
We are so proud of our Opinion pieces about our favorite character! (Don't worry - all of their writing pieces will go home with you at the end of the year : ) ).
In Math, we had a blast kicking off our subtraction unit with the Cookie Monster Challenge.
We watched a video about a Cookie Monster and we talked about how we could figure out how many cookies the cookie monster ate.
In language, we focused on proper nouns! We made proper noun pizzas :)
Have a fabulous week!
