What's going on in room 402?

A lot! That's what! We have been super duper busy learning multiplication. These kiddos are awesome, too! I just love watching their little minds figure stuff out. And they were especially anxious to learn multiplication - they think they are big kids now that they know how to "times". 
This day we were making equal groups with our fruit loops on our marshmallow stands. They loved it! And the best part - they got to eat it when they finished! 

This little cutie is counting away. 

Don't you wish you could hear the conversation between these two? They are both smarty pants... so I'm sure it was something like "hey, ten times ten is one hundred." The one on the left is the same student that gave me a lesson on the atmosphere and why stars twinkle. SO smart!

Three precious girlies learning their moon "faces" (phases) with oreos.
Can you think of a better way to learn them?? Not me!

We talked about probability before we started multiplication. 
They had to write about the probability of "when pigs fly".
I loved all their creative ideas of how pigs would be able to fly.

Back on March 1st we celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday by reading 
"One Fish, Two Fish"and doing our math lesson with goldfish. 
Of course, a birthday party wouldn't be complete without our Cat In The Hat Hats!
