Estimation
This week we have worked on practicing estimating. We have read two exciting books and each day we practice estimating the number of things in a zip-loc bag. Yesterday we estimated a bunch of crayons, made our guesses on post-it notes, and then counted to see the real number (26). We then discussed which guesses were guess estimates. We also watched a clip from discovery education on how crayons are made and the large amount of crayons that are made each day.

Scientist of the Day
We have begun "Scientist For The Day" and are taking turns sending the scientist bags home with each student. Please keep the bag for up to two nights. So, that means if it goes home on Monday it must be back to school by Wednesday. No excuses please. We have children waiting their turn. All instructions are in the bag, please take a few minutes to read them when your child comes home with the bag. Thanks!
