We are learning all about telling time in math. We learned how to tell time to the nearest hour today. Some of us even practiced telling time to the half-hour. We learned that you can say times differently, but it means the same thing. For example, you can say it is 1:30 or you can say, it is half-past one. One of us even realized how to tell time to the nearest minute! WOW! She said, "Mrs. Hershman. Someone asked me to show 3:33. At first I thought I couldn't, but I put the hour hand on three, then I went to 3:30, then I went over THREE more spaces and I realized- that's 3:33!" We are always learning so much in our classroom.
In writing today our learning point was, "I can read my writing like I read books." We practiced reading our stories with voice, fluently so it sounds just like a book! We are excellent readers and writers.
