January!

This month the girls have been putting their best foot foward embarking on their journey into 2019! We have discussed our New Year Resolutions, and expressed our new goals. This month we have also learned about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his accomplishments! We have also been working on our Fiction Unit. The students have created 'If, Then' Fictional stories where they learn to emulate their favorite authors and illustrators! We have been challenged in all subjects and are looking forward in what the future has in store for February! 


Our 'I Have A Dream' Bulletin Board! Writing was done after hearing a snippet of Dr. King's speech from Scholastic News! We then took his dream, and connected it to our own dreams! 


Our 'Mitten Math' Bulletin Board! Students were challenged with Subtraction Regroup and no regrouping strategies using two digit numbers. Students were able to show their work, and work with peers to find the differences! 



Our 'Thank You Dr. King' Bulletin Board! 


Key details are so important in understanding what really happened! 


After watching a video on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., we had the chance to write down what we learned and answer questions!
