Third graders work with fractions

It was great seeing everyone today!  We started with doing some reading that required clues.  They had to draw objects after they figured out what they were.

We also did some fraction practice.  We made our own using red and pink construction paper,  Then we cut one of them, and glued them together.  Before gluing, we had cut out a given number of equal parts.  Then we figured out how much of our circle was red, and how much was pink.

We also got on our devices a little today.  We were unable to do anything but xtramath, and a little Seesaw.  We are going to use them again in the morning. I want them to see what they need to do if an assignment is returned to them.

We read a biographical book about Abe Lincoln. We discussed why it was a biography and not an autobiography.

We enjoyed decorating cookies, melting almond bark, and spreading the almond bark onto the big pretzel rods.

Wednesday will be the day we celebrate the 100th day of school. You can have your child make a shirt with 100 items on it,  if you like.  They may also dress as if they are 100.  Some didn't get the t-shirts because we were on quarantine.

Have a great evening!
