We officially began our work with fractions today. Students began to look at landmark fractions and to place these fractions onto number lines. It was an important first step into our new math unit. I continue to tell my students that I am here on Wednesdays after school for extra help. Students can come whenever they are having any issues.

Students continued their work with Bud Not Buddy today. Room 312 had a nice discussion concerning turning points. We also began to read chapter 11. I also collected students' three step journals today. These pages will be a grade on the first report card.
