While outside is trying to decide between being cool or warm, we are working hard inside. The teachers have designed lessons that are challenging our students. This week, as we were in classrooms, we observed students multiplying fractions in 5th grade, building three-digit numbers in second grade, and comparing two-digit numbers in first grade. Students in 4th grade were reading and analyzing text, third graders were busy writing CREs while kindergarten students decomposed teen numbers.
If you ask your child what they learned at school and they said "nothing", ask them to think again.
