Happy Monday Bighorns!
We are back into a full 4 day work week. Our math class will continue to focus on telling time and working on “high number” facts. The 1st graders are doing a great job working with “o’clock” time, we will continue to work with half past 7 or 7:30. The students need to know that vocabulary.
As a class we will also discuss estimating time: it is almost 8:00 or it is about 8:30. The kids are required to be able to tell “about” what time it is. However, it is NOT a standard that is graded on their report card.
We often hear from the higher level teachers 4-6th that the students have a very hard time telling time...this is the new generation. They can read a digital clock on computers, cell phones, tablets etc. However, it is VERY important that all students are able to tell time on an analog clock. The kids have asked many clarifying questions about how to tell time!
This is our last full week of February and we only have 3 weeks until until the end of 3rd Quarter!!!
