"Students first made estimates of how many beans were in the bag, then we read the story Jack and the Beanstalk. Students then worked in small groups to count and sort beans into groups of 10s and if they had ten 10s they made a 100. Throughout the lesson we learned that 100 can be grouped into ten 10s called a hundred. We added all of our work mats up and all together we had 1,159 magic beans!" - Mrs. Bruni and her second grade class
Clock fractions!⏰
Ms. Schneider's 5th grade students got to use a spinner to generate 2 fractions. Then they needed to write down an addition equation with those fractions, and solve! The first player to completely fill all three clocks won the game!
Good afternoon!

Thank you to all of our Salem families who volunteered at our Sleep in Heavenly Peace Event this past weekend! Our Salem students met new friends, learned some carpentry skills and had a blast doing a good deed! They also got to learn sanding, staining + drilling, and were engaged and working hard! At the end of the event they helped to clean up the warehouse by sweeping, putting away electrical cords and sanders, and helping out wherever they were needed!

Classes took advantage of the sunny weather on Wednesday to use this method of solar observation. We can only hope there will be a break in the predicted cloudy skies on Saturday!
