Vocabulary words for the week :)

We're working on adjectives this week!

New Links

These would be great for math review:
Mean, Median, Mode, Range
Multi-step Word Problems

Elapsed Time
Making Change

Holiday crafts

We spent some time sewing today!

The Stone Soup Summary

Enjoy our summary of Stone Soup!

Stone Soup is a story about monks who make stone soup and it brings a village together. Three monks went into a village. They noticed that everyone was hiding and nobody would greet them or talk to them. A brave, little girl came out to greet them. The monks started to make stone soup. Then, some villagers came out to help them make soup. Everyone started to pitch in and help make soup. They added tons of ingredients like winter melon. At the end, they had a banquet meal. The villagers realized that sharing leads to happiness.
