We have spent our outside time doing math, eating snack, learning new games like Capture the Flag and Kick Ball, and will continue to find different ways to connect with the land while we learn. 




Math: Fractions 

We have continued our exploration of fractions over the last couple of weeks using Montessori materials, play dough, secret code fraction challenges, and a variety of independent task work. Students completed a pre-assessment before learning any fraction concepts and have followed up with a post-assessment this week to represent their growing understanding.
