BEDMAS Hopscoth

We took our math outside today so that we could learn about order of operations while playing BEDMAS hopscotch. It was great to see you hopping around while yelling out: Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction. I especially loved the sing-song quality of your voices :) However, my favourite part had to be the equations you created and solved in chalk to show your understanding! What a great math block!

Oops! Time for some awesome!

Yesterday's awesome

White chocolate brownies

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... AWESOME!

Today's awesome

The Lorax (or really anything by Dr. Seuss)

Grickle-grass, Truffala Trees, Bar-ba-loots, Swomee-Swans, Humming-Fish... A cleverly written story that teaches us how we must treasure our planet and be weary of deforestation and pollution. It also shows how each person must care for the environment, because, as the Lorax says: "UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not". AWESOME!
