First In Math

Mrs. Godley's class has recently been playing the games on a FABULOUS website called First In Math.  You can get there by clicking on this link or entering http://www.firstinmath.com/  in the address bar.  We play it individually on the classroom computers, on the Smartboard as a whole class, and individually at home.  The games on this site help us review and master our 4th grade math skills.  What is your favorite game on this site?  Why is it so much fun?


 

Probability Practice




In Mrs. Owen's class, this 3rd grade student is getting some probability practice and explaining his thinking to his friends.

Reading Data

In 3rd grade this week, we have been studying different types of data and how to read graphs. The students have been deep in conversation creating and analyzing their own data.

Morning Calendar



Each morning in second grade, students have calendar time on the SMARTboard. They discuss strategies for solving problems and have a chance to show what they know. Here on the 159th day of school, a student in Mrs. D. Clark's class is showing four different ways to represent the number.  Here's a question for you...If today is day 159 and there are 182 school days, how many more days of school are left?

Computer Lab

Students use computers in the computer lab and the classroom.  In this picture, students are using classroom computers to read and listen to text related to their science curriculum.
