Multiplication Fact Practice

Games are a fun way to practice multiplication.  This week we played bump with a partner.

Friction Sliders

What does friction do? It steals motion!  Ask your child to tell you which material had the most and the least amount of friction. 

Happy Thanksgiving

I am not a turkey! The students had to write a paragraph convincing us their project was not a turkey.  They came up with some creative disguises.    

Creating Our Villages

The Pilgrims' houses were built of wood and had thatched roofs.  Each family had a small garden to grow herbs and vegetables.

Math Stations

During math stations, we rotate through different groups.  Today, we worked on multiplying 3 numbers.  Ask your child to tell you about the game.

Halloween Party Fun

Check out our amazing costumes! Hope everyone had a great Halloween. 

We had a blast at Rocky Woods!  The students took turns preparing the food, tending the fire, and fishing. They shot arrows with their bows during archery.  For lunch, we ate delicious beef stew, chicken, applesauce and pumpkin bread.  The cornbread was made in a Dutch oven with hot coals. Many children enjoyed a dough boy for dessert.  Steal the bacon was a game we played before going on a hike through the woods.  It's fun to be a Pilgrim.
