Good afternoon! Today was National Crush a Can Day! To celebrate we played the old fashioned game Kick the Can outside at recess for a short time, then we crushed the cans. I'm not sure which part the students enjoyed more!
Another exciting thing we did today was learn all the multiples of ten (from 0-12) in less than 2 minutes. The students didn't believe me at first when I told them they could do it.
The final thrill of the day was when we learned about prepositional phrases (I know, I bet you all wish you were here for that one!) The students did really well for first time through. I'm proud of them!
