Subtracting on a number line

Scholastic book order now due.
No school tomorrow.

We began subtracting on a number line today.  This was difficult thinking for some.  Jumping backwards.  Looking into the tens place of the second digit to see how many jumps of ten to take and then looking to see how many jumps of ones to take.  Once we finished several examples and then wrote about what we were doing the strategy became clearer.  Practice makes perfect.

We tried our hand at writing a journal entry that explains a personal experience including important details to make the writing informative.  With our anchor book as an example many wrote about grandparents, weekend camping trips and being on Nose Hill.  The idea was to include detail to make a picture for the reader.  This bring us to the end of our work with The Raft.
