In math this week we are practicing division by working on dividing by 2, 10, 5, 3, and 4. This week I am also going to try something different for math. We are going to try doing math rotations so that I can really work on different skills for the kids, we will see how this goes! While I'm working with different groups I will have the kids working on math on the computers as well as at their seat practice. We'll try it this week and see if it works!!
In science we are starting our simple machine unit and we begin with learning about what a simple machine is and then we will explore our simple machine building kits. In social studies we will finish our chapter learning about what makes our culture so diverse.
