Hi parents,
We had a pretty good day today. In the morning, we learned about 'conjunctions' (and, but, so, because, although), and how they can be used to combine two simple sentences into a compound sentence. Then the students wrote about their weekends using compound sentences.
In Math, we used the Golden Beads to represent numbers, and we started learning about regrouping. The Golden Beads material is one of the best ways to illustrate the 'regrouping' aspect of the standard algorithm (also known as 'carrying the one').
In the afternoon we practiced the new spelling words, played tag games in gym, and had some quiet reading time.
Have a nice night,
Zac
