Perimeter Practice

During our unit on perimeter, we discussed many ways to find the perimeter of shapes.  One of the more engaging ways was to use a string to measure the distance around a shape, then measure the string with a yard stick.  

National Day of Reading

On January 23rd, we celebrated the National Day of Reading.  Students wore comfy clothes, could bring in their favorite book to share, comfy blankets and pillows, and a flashlight.  Other teachers came in as guest readers, we read in the dark with flashlights.  Students got a chance to share their favorite books.  It was a great day of reading and celebrating!
