I finished my quick checks!
I've since been working on the entrance and exit slips, but they're taking a long time-I only have three (out of 15) chapters fully done.
I did organize the sea animals by the depth levels where they live, as we keep going deeper into our learning ; ) (I do know that whales dive deep, but they have to come up to the surface to breathe).
I plan on doing examples of each level with the kids on what it looks like, and posting them next to it.
I also typed up the Mathematical Practice standards in a kid friendly way. I tried to word them so that they wouldn't only apply to the math, but to everything.
We also have two other new teachers in our building, and I felt a little guilty making a welcome basket for our new upper grades teacher and not the others-so I made a smaller welcome gift!
I hope they enjoy it!
Have a wonderful week!
Smiles and Sunshine,

Your mathematical practices posters are adorable and it is super smart to word them to apply to all content areas. Will you be adding them to your store. I checked and couldn't find them. Thanks! sanfordb@issaquah.wednet.edu
