Apparently our friend the elf, Mr. Jangles, likes math as much as he does reading! Today he was making polygons on geoboards! Jasmine was our child of the day and read Little Bulldozer. Thanks, Jasmine! Our passports were stamped for our 1st stop on our trip around the world to learn about holiday traditions. We read books about American traditions and created a "keepsake" for our suitcase of collectibles from our trip. Tomorrow we take off across the ocean. We also read three cards from schools across the country and labeled our map of North America as to where they came from: Texas, Pennsylvania, and Alabama. As we complete the online project of exchanging holiday greetings and as we complete our Holidays Around the World, we are also learning map skills. Homework that is due on Friday: Gingerbread Science experiment and math problem solving worksheets. Reading Log and Math Fact Log will be reviewed on Friday but are due complete with holiday vacation reading/math fact practice in January when we return from break. Tomorrow students take their math MAP test. Be sure and get a good nights sleep and eat a healthy breakfast.
