We've been learning about comparing numbers using larger than and equal signs. There's no better way to get numbers to compare than to weigh our produce, broiler chicks, and tools in the barnyard. Students learned about the various scales we have at our school, and practiced comparing weights.
Working in partners in a barnyard scavenger hunt is the best!
While learning about various sounds, students took their skills outdoors and practiced identifying words in nature with those sounds.
