Happy Birthday Chets Creek!

To prepare for a great week of fun filled activities in honor of our school's 10th birthday,
we graphed our very own birthdays in Math. It was great teaching the students about the different ways to graph. We are learning to collect , record, and represent data. The students are encouraged to examine the differences and similarities in a group of related data, which was our birthdays. It was a fun activity.
We are also continuing to work on solving story problems, tell time and count money.
Please let you child practice counting your loose change.

We are reading the Weekly Reader in Social Studies.
Last we we discussed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We watched a video about his life. How awesome! Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood for equality for all people.

In Science we will finish with the Weather unit this week. We have been graphing the temperature in Jacksonville this month. Another super activity to help the students understand graphs.
