Today we created artwork based on our last math unit (geometry) and learned about the artist Wayne Thiebaud.
We noticed that cakes are cylinders and learned how to draw some big delicious cylinders (some with slices cut out!).
This art project finishes our unit on geometry and today we started our unit on doubling numbers by playing several math games. Games are such a terrific way to reinforce skills. A great family game to play to work with numbers is yahtzee. If you are looking for more fun ways to add math into your day, check out this website
The Leprechaun Traps have started to arrive! We read a little bit about Ireland today and some stories that are told about leprechauns. Remember to bring your traps in so we can try to catch the little guys on Thursday.
Next Monday, I will be at 5th grade outdoor education with my son and Mrs. Morissey will be teaching all week.
