*Tomorrow is Pajama Day! We are celebrating all of our hard work reading over break at Summit!
In math, we are about to wrap up our fourth unit. We are ending with a three day measurement and fraction exploration using beanstalks! Today third graders worked with a partner to draw and color a beanstalk that will provide us various measurements to explore. So far, we have measured the height in inches, as well as each leaf on our beanstalk to the nearest quarter inch! I was so impressed with the focus and teamwork the three graders demonstrated today!
We have also been discussing fractions in our unit, as well as in Number Corner. We have been thinking about ordering fractions from greatest to smallest. Most recently we have been talking about fractions on a number line and finding equivalent fractions. Ask your child if they can name some fractions equivalent to 1/2! Or to name some of the locations Freddie the Fraction Frog was hiding on our number line!
