Rounding and States of Matter

I want to apologize for making such a late post this week!  It has been crazy trying to get ready for the field trip!  I hope that your kids enjoyed the field trip to the Wortham Center watching Treasure Island.  Here are a few post from the kids about what we learned last week in Math and Science.  We did learn more than that but they seemed to have forgotten some details.  :)

This week in math, we started rounding to the nearest tens.  The kids have started using Odyssey in math.  It's a great program that helps deepen their understanding on the topics that we've covered in class.  We are continuing states of matter but concentrating on more solids.  

Mrs. Skaggs and I are so excited to integrate technology into our classroom.  We've introduced the kids to Edmodo, which is an educational social media site customized for our classroom where the kids can share and collaborate on ideas and opinions.  The students have embraced it with open arms and seem to love it so far!
