Fractions

We wrapped up our fractions unit this past week.  Students worked with fraction strips to compare, order, read and write fractions.  They worked with putting fractions on a number line and with using fractions as an operator in a number story.  Overall, the kids in the Lily Pad did a great job with such a difficult mathematical concept.

Angles

We are revisiting geometry for our next unit of study.  This time, students will be learning and using more of the vocabulary associated with geometry.  They are learning about right angles, acute angles, obtuse angles, polygons and quadrilaterals.  We are also using the terms congruent, parallel and perpendicular when we describe various shapes.

The Urban Adventure

Just a heads up that our Urban Adventure will be on Friday, May 2nd.  There was a note sent home last week with students.  If you are interested and available to be a chaperone for this trip, just let us know.  This is an amazing trip and opportunity for the third graders.
