Every week we get an email from Hadleys teacher. Here is one of them!
Hi Families,
I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was outside all week! I hope you were able to get outside and enjoy it.
I am sending home a book order today! It will be due on or before March 20th. Our online class code is NGJ32, otherwise feel free to send in a paper copy of the order with a check made out to Scholastic.
This week we read the second Curious George book, Curious George Rides a Bike. The children
are beginning to notice the writing style of H.A. and Margret Rey.
(Example: The book always starts out saying,
"This is George, he is a good little monkey but always very curious.")
Some are even attempting to write their own Curious George books.

In math this week we
worked on expanded form more intensely through addition story problems.
Some of the students are beginning to add numbers together in the teens,
for example 13 + 16. As a class, we discussed
the many ways we could solve this problem. We talked about which way
would be the most efficient. I model doing expanded form each day, and
many of the students are trying to solve the problem this way too. See
below for an example of how we solve an addition
problem using expanded form.

13+16
13 -> 10 + 3
16 -> 10 + 6
10+10=20
3+6 = 9
20+9 = 29
Reminders:
*There is no school tomorrow, March 13th.
*Hat day is Thursday, March 19th. Bring in your favorite hat to wear all day!
We are running out of crayons!
If you would be willing to donate a box of crayons to the class, please
send them with your child next week. Thanks so much! :)
