Math
On Monday, Mr. Ronan & Miss Ahrens reviewed fact families, place value, and introduced them to bar & picture graphs.  They continued these concepts on Tuesday. Then, Mrs. Sansale taught the kids how to figure out missing pieces in 100's charts.  Like what is 10 more than a number, 10 less than a number, 1 more than a number or 1 less than a number.  They also touched on reviewing doubles plus one.  We played a really fun Doubles Plus One dice game.  Next week we will take our 2nd Quarter Math Assessment to see how far they have come!
