What do you know about multiplication?

This week we are looking for the key events in non-fiction texts.  We will be paying close attention to the words in bold letters and the sub headings.  Our mentor texts will surround Black History month as we look at people such as Harriet Tubman and Martin Luther King.

Multiplication.  The most anticipated grade 3 topic was started today.  I started today with the question, "What do you know about multiplication?"  Responses were varied from nothing all the way to making groups.  This gives me information about the range of experience in the classroom.  We started with the basics and brainstormed together all the things that come in groups of two - eyes, ears, hands, bikes, chopsticks and went from there.  Students worked together to brainstorm things that come in groups of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

 Musical instruments are due at school tomorrow.  Your little learner should be able to tell us that a high pitch sound has a high frequency with more vibrations than a low pitched sound.  It would be super helpful if the instruction sheet that arrived at home came back to school so that I may use the rubric on the back side.
