Place Value

We have spent this week exploring place value in different ways. Today, The Soaring Pilots had to work in cooperative groups to solve the place value riddle. As you can see they are using a variety of strategies to find the answers! Way to go!

Our Community

The Soaring Pilots have completed their T-shirts and have bonded as a community. We have learned a lot about each other and have made new friends. We decided that our class motto is: We are risk-takers! We will utilize the powers of respect, cooperation, friendship and caring to keep our community strong. I am excited to see where we go this year!!

What is your name worth?

The Soaring Pilots were very busy discovering what their name was worth using a coded alphabet. First we used the code to create unifix towers for each letter of our name. Next, we predicted whose name would be worth more or less based on the size and quantity of towers on their desk. Finally, we had to calculate the total and find where in the graph our name belongs.
