Amazing Technology!
This was our second time using the IPEVO tool. It uses a camera to register the images projected on a whiteboard, turning it into a Smartboard. So cool! All of the children were super engaged when we did morning message, compound words, and editing during Writer's Workshop.

Visitors from UHS
The children were very excited to have football players read books to them. We were also able to ask questions about football and college preparation. So exciting!

Egg Carton Game
Dear Parents,
We played a fun game today during math! It is called the Egg Carton Game. We used it for addition, but it can also be used for subtraction, comparing numbers, identifying numbers and much more!
Below are pictures of the game. Many of us used different strategies to solve the equation or number sentence. Some used the calendar or 100 chart as a resource, others used a number line, counters, doubles (11+11=?, so I could say 10+10=20, then I have 2 left over, so 20+2=22), mental math, etc.
This would be a simple and great game to make at home.
Our class created more neurons to make us smarter. We persevered!
Love,
Mrs. Roth's Class
P.S. Don't forget to cover the holes in your egg carton with tape. Otherwise, the two counter will fall out!

Field Trip
I am excited to begin our next Social Studies unit called "Long Ago" in the next week. This is where children will recognize changes over time. For example, the main form of transportation used to be horse and buggy and now we use automobiles.
We will be supporting this unit by visiting Rose Hill Manor Park & Children's Museum on March 24th. Chaperones will be chosen via a lottery system and I will be in touch as soon as possible.

Showing Kindness
The children brainstormed different ways we can show kindness in the classroom, school, community, nation, and world. The children came up with great ideas!
