Seeing Spots
September 15th was International Dot Day based off of Peter Reynold's book, The Dot. The story encourages readers to take a leap, "make a mark, and see where it takes you."
Many students and staff wore dots to celebrate.
We created art, listened to the story and toured the school on a scavenger hunt for dots.
Raising Awareness
After watching a BrainPop video about hurricanes and talking about recent events in Texas and Florida, we made posters to increase awareness about Shaker Lane's Hurricane Relief Coin Drive. It was exciting to make the first contributions!
Looking at learning
We learn everyday in many ways. This week we learned about ourselves and each other on the inside and the outside. We explored the many places math exists outside of our math class and we monitored the growth of our morning glories since planting them on the first day of school.
How do you use math?
