  • Penguin Patch Shopping Day- Wednesday, December 16th!

To help prepare for the test, students worked together to write their own work problems based on equations that we’ve been working on.

They needed to write out a situation that went with the equation. The group also needed to write out how to solve the problem on the back of the card. Later, students traveled in pairs to solve their classmates’ word problems!

Mr. Cooley’s Dad, Mike Cooley Sr., came in to share about the writing process with us! He told stories from his book, The Power of Forgiveness, and encouraged us to write our own stories. Thanks, Mr. Cooley Sr.!

We had to opportunity to share some of our favorite stories with our kindergarten buddies in Mrs. Tindall’s class!

We got to prepare reading by doing what teachers do and place sticky notes in areas where we wanted to ask questions or make predictions.

We had fun getting cozy and sharing some reading!
