To help us review for our place value test, we had math stations today.  Students used the Moodle, played  "I'm the Greatest" place value game, did a Place Value Crossword, and worked with Mrs. Donze.



Having fun playing "I Am the Greatest"!

Long School Expectations


During the first day of school, students participated in rotations to learn Long School Expectations.  We learned about using a "5s" line in the hallways (silent, still, straight, slow, and smiling), had a refresher on how to correctly use the recess equipment, discussed safe bus behavior and what to do when exiting the bus before school, cafeteria etiquette, and how to efficiently use the restroom and wash hands thoroughly. Our class did a terrific job listening and learning during our afternoon rotations!  I think we are going to have a a super year!

Learning about to walk in the hallway quietly from Ms. Behnen.
