Polygons!!!

We are finishing up the year in math by studying Geometry.  We have been learning about different shapes and their attributes.  We have also been learning about why some shapes are called "Polygons" and some are not.

Today at school we learned a little more about polygons with these two videos.

We then constructed our own polygons with straws and twist ties.

Check out your Seesaw account to see the polygons that your student made!

Pumpkin Math and Literacy!

We had so much fun measuring, counting and comparing with our pumpkins brought back from Kuiper's Farm!

We used strings to estimated the circumference with strings.  Was yours: too short, too long, or just right?

How tall is my pumpkin?

How many lines are on my pumpkin?

Comparing an orange and pink pumpkin...the students LOVED this!

Making Our Own Yes or No Graphs!

Making Our Own Graphs!

We worked on the Common Core Standard of:

I can create a graph.

I can ask and answer questions about a graph.

by creating Yes or No graphs.

Check out a sneak peak into our project!

Even Belle got in on the fun!  She is finally out of hibernation!

Here are a few of the finished products!

120th Day of School!

I can count to 120, starting at any number.

Today we celebrated all of our hard work this year on counting to 120 by celebrating the 120th Day of School!

Some students dressed at though they were 120 Years old!  Love it!

We are 120 Days Smarter!

Here we are "acting" 120 years old.  :)

Check out our 120 Cup Structures!

Groups worked together during our hands on math groups to create these.

Happy 120 Day!

Turkey Tessellations!

We practiced our geometry skills by making a Turkey Tessellation Project!

A Tessellation is a pattern of shapes that fit perfectly together!

Miss Lane, our Batavia High School Link Student teacher, lead us through this awesome and fun lesson.

Check out the pics below!

I will add some photos of the finished products soon!  You will be amazed!
