Last Friday, Nowlin hosted a Math Workshop for parents to see what their child is learning in math at school. On Friday, I sent home a lady-bug addition mat with M&M’s to practice addition. You can use this mat at home with dice or with counters of any kind to help your child practice addition sentences. Thank you to all the parents who attended the workshop the class really enjoyed you being there.
Class Dojo – I have mentioned to students that this is the month to earn positive Dojo points because Santa is coming and we will have our PBIS celebration at the end of the month. As a class we need to practice good behavior all the time.
