Mrs. Long takes over...

We are happy to have Mrs. Cindy Long with us this year. Most of you had the pleasure of meeting her at Open House back during August. She is currently a student at Western Governor's University and is completing her required student teaching assignment. She will be with us for 12 weeks up through November 12. As part of her student teaching, she must complete a two week "take over" in which she is responsible for all instruction that takes place in the classroom. Her take over begins on Thursday. I will still be at school. However, I am not allowed to be in the classroom. I am only a phone call away should Mrs. Long require any assistance. I will still see students at lunch, recess, and at the end of each day. I just wanted you to be aware of the changes taking place in our classroom community.

I wish you all a restful Fall Break!

Until next time,

Mrs. Richardson :)

Building Base Ten Numbers

This week, we've been reviewing place value. Students rolled dice to get their numeral. We used base ten blocks to build models of numbers through the hundreds place. Check out our photos!

Table 3 takes turns building numbers.

Amya's eager for her turn to roll the dice.

Isaiah and Haylee think Math is FUN!

Alexia takes her turn!
