Wednesday

Today we talked about Martin Luther King, Jr. and read the story "Martin's Big Words". We will complete some activites today and tomorrow.
We also had a class meeting and discussed the "no trading" rule for anything brought. We had an instance yesterday where a couple of students forgot, a gentle reminder was in order. In addition, I said, "Remember your boundaries". That was all I had to say they knew from the last discussion what I was talking about. I did not mention or go into specific boundaries.
In math we talked about adding 2 to 98 or 1 to 99 to make 100 and take 1 or 2 away from the other number and then add them together. For example 23+98, becomes 21+100. They caught onto this easily.
