Our Week in Review

Fire Safety at the Fire Station

Practicing getting low if there is a fire or smoke in a building.




Aim the water towards the bucket!

Bucket Filler!

Our bucket filler of the week!  Way to go Maggie!  Always a great listener and friend to everyone in our class!

 Social Studies

Presidential speeches were given by each of the students, as we are learning about the presidents of the past and the election coming up in November!

Book Orders

Book orders!  Our class was able to receive free books for our classroom because we had parents order books online!  Every time you order online (or by paper) we receive points so we can "purchase" books for our classroom, too!!  When you order online, you also receive a $5 free book of your choice!
To order online go to www.scholastic.com/bookclubs  
Use our one-time class activation code to register: LB6PH

Time for Math! {Estimating and Rounding}

Estimate the number of seeds in the pumpkin.  Round your answer to the nearest ten. 
What will be the fastest way to count the seeds?  By ones? Twos? Fives?
Put everyone's rounded estimate in numerical order.

Maggie, Sam, Jake, Rylie

Jayden and Mallory

Drew and Gabe

Apparently, ALL pumpkins have about 500 seeds in them, regardless of the size of the pumpkin.  
We counted 518!!
