Pronk like a Springbok

Your weekly schedule has been updated with a link for today’s dance lesson and a math game called Strike it Out (or Cross it Off).  If you were in my class last year, you might remember this game.  Usually, we would learn this together in the classroom before trying it at home so if you are not sure about the instructions send me an e-mail and I will see if I can help. Here is a link to the game: https://nrich.maths.org/6589

There is also a new online math game to help you practice filling in the 100 chart. You have done this kind of puzzle in the classroom on paper and now you can try it on the computer.

If you have not picked your African animal for your project yet, you can do that today. Which animal will you pick? Here is a fun video about an African animal called a Springbok. I bet that you can’t watch this video without smiling.

Maybe, the next time that we do Animal Walks in P.E., I will ask you to pronk like a springbok.

For storytime today, you might like: Meet the Meerkat by Darrin Lunde. This non-fiction book about the Meerkat can help you to think of some questions for your animal project.
