April 20 - 24

Sorry for the week hiatus! We are back on the blog!

First - Hunters Creek just got a new math subscription called “Mangahigh Math”. It’s an awesome website where there are fun math games as well as games that we can assign for our kiddos. It lets the teachers assign “challenges” to the kids where they play games to practice their math and it lets us see their progress and assign games with more rigor as they advance through the program. We wanted to let you know that it is available to use at home and throughout the summer as well! Your kids can work on the challenges we assign them (IF YOU want them to) or they can play around on the math games. Everything on Mangahigh is math education and the kids are finding it very fun and exciting!

    With that being said, here is how they log-on (and they already know this, but just so you’re informed as well..

    Their username is their computer username at HCE (they know these – email your teacher if you have questions).
    Their password is their lunch #.
    The School ID is 42383.

Mangahigh is AWESOME and the kiddos are loving it!

Also - you should be receiving a Field Trip form today in your child's green folder! We are going to the zoo on May 4th! Please sign and return this to your child's teacher ASAP!

Check out what we are learning this week..

Writing - We are learning about sensory details and colors! Students will write their own poems about a color that they choose. We will also write Earth Day poems!

Reading - We will learn to gather evidence from resources, use text features to locate information, and record basic information in visual formats!

Math - We will finish up our unit on time and move on to picture graphs.

Science - We will continue our study of birds and their characteristics. This week we are looking at their beaks and feet to see how the different types of each affect their diet and movement!
