The 3rd grade math class reviewed making arrays and writing multiplication equations with this fun craft!
This year, I am fortunate to serve as the remote learning educator for kindergarten-5th grade. I host daily Zoom activities with my students and we do the following: *Math Monday *Word Up & Writing Tuesday *1-on-1 Wednesday *STEM Thursday *Fun Friday Check out some of our favorite activities! My 2nd graders are working on reading fluency and love hearing their voices as they read! These whisper phones have been a great addition to the classroom. Congratulations to October's reading and math challenge earners!
The first grade students love practicing their heart words by playing the classic game, Go Fish! My 3rd grade walk-to group has been practicing context clues! They completed a set of task cards in the hallway, then even made their own! Can you guess what their made-up words are?! My second grade walk-to group is working on retelling the events in a story. We spent a few days practicing together as a group by reading several fun books, then I modeled for them how I would retell a story that I have read. The students read a book together as a group and retold the story to me, which I had never read. They did a wonderful job! So, the next day, they got to chose their own books to read independently and retold the stories to the class. This group is so much fun! These students met their reading and math challenges for the month of September! Way to go, Crestwood!
"What is the number after....?" We have been working on next number fluency on Math Mondays. The 1st graders had so much fun working in the shaving cream! These first and second grade friends have been working hard on letter naming and reading fluency! We played Roll, Read, and Race with letters to practice speed and accuracy. The students also read passages to a partner and recorded their words after a minute. They each got better with every read!
My first grade walk-to group has been working on their heart words for a few weeks now. We have played games on the SmartBoard and in the classroom along with practiced with our flash cards, but yesterday I decided to switch it up a little! The students had to create pictures using pattern blocks while reading the words. Their creativity and innovation really shined as they used the different blocks to create the shapes. It was so fun to watch their little hands and minds work! My fifth grade walk-to group did their first week of centers and they worked so hard! One group read an instructional level text with me, then we focused on restating the question in written answers. The other group played Kaboom! with their sight words. The laughs and smiles filled the room! |
