Ten Turns

This week in Math Workshop the children played a game called Ten Turns. We have completed our unit on patterns and we are now working on counting, comparing and ordering number to at least 100. The students worked in pairs to collect pennies by rolling a number cube and "adding on" each turn. Some students were able to 'count on' from the prior number, while others needed to recount the entire group of pennies each turn.

A Pep Rally!

The students enjoyed a visit from Terry Parker High School cheerleaders, band and football players on Tuesday afternoon. Terry Parker visited area schools as part of their homecoming week festivities.

Volunteers Needed!

I am looking for parent volunteers to help with our booth at the Parkwood Carnival on October 29th. Our class will be responsible for the "Trunk Toss" game. You would only need to volunteer for a 30 minute shift. The carnival will run from 4:30 - 7:30 pm. Please let me know if you can help!

Fire Safety Week!

We have been talking about community helpers in our social studies unit this week. Click here for fun games and activities related to Fire Prevention Week. You can even drive a firetruck!!

Spirit Day!

We enjoyed our first spirit day on Friday. The students loved dancing with the Parkwood Panther, enjoying the 3rd grade program and getting tatoos! Parents are always invited to join us in the courtyard on the first Friday of the month...wear your red and white!
