Vol. 1 Issue 43

Mystery Reader: Susy Stovin
Marley's mom read The Koala Who Bounces, McSpots Hidden Spots, and I’m in Big Trouble.

January is Math-tastic!!!
Students generated number names for 100 after 100 days of number talks. Their number sense has grown leaps and bounds. Our students Rock!!!

Henry’s mom assisted small groups while they created and shared original number stories (story problems/word problems) yesterday. Thanks for your help!!!
