Today there was so much learning happening! We enjoyed reading from the classroom library after warming up with our guided reading books and then we headed outside to work on our book reports.
We spent the majority of the day engaged in our math lesson about number bonds (also known as fact families). We're working on numbers up to 5 and started very basic addition today. We played with little farm animal counters and multiple small white boards as different ways to set up addition problems. I am so bummed I didn't get any good pictures of that activity - it was so hands on that I didn't seem to stop for a moment to document it. After playing with all the counters we completed a fun under the sea addition to 5 booklet. Kids learned the word "equation" and when they read the book to you at home please ask them to read you the equation on each page. Utilizing the true vocabulary helps them understand from the beginning what they're working with.
