Number Party

In case you missed the blue letter I sent home in purple folders yesterday, here are the details:

To participate in our number party THIS FRIDAY (the 25th) please send your child to school dressed as their favorite number between 1 and 10. 

For example, your child could decorate a t-shirt and pants with their favorite number all over, or wear a decorated cardboard cut-out of their favorite number. You could even take a more mysterious approach and (if “3” was your number of choice) wear 3 hats , 3 shirts, 3 shoes, etc. Be creative and I look forward to seeing lots of good-looking numbers on Friday!!! 

Telling Time

In math this week, we’re all about time! Today we even practiced telling time down to the minute! These soon-to-be second graders are catching on quick and I have a challenge for their brains! 

Just as promised, if you can tell the time on each clock (and tell me HOW YOU KNOW what the time is) then I’ll have special surprise for you on Friday!

To get you warmed up, here is our favorite time song:

And now, I give you your time challenge!

(I know that the hour may be a little tricky, but as long as you can tell me why you chose the time you did, it counts!)
