Week of 1/21

Post date: Jan 21, 2014 2:26:10 PM

We continue to work on Visualizing. I am finding that the children are not seeing some of the important details from the story when they visualize. One more week and then we will move on to Making Inferences.

In Math we are starting Multiplication. Some how I am still surprised that we start multiplication in 2nd grade. I don't remember working on multiplication until about 5 grade when I was a kid. None the less, the kids love that they are starting multiplication. I think it makes them feel grown up to be doing this operation. Like they are a part of a "Big Kids Club".

Stay warm this week. It looks like a cold one.
