Today was a day full of rich math discussion. We took up our morning math warm up, Which One Doesn't Belong Patterning. This math thinking routine reinforced student understanding of increasing and decreasing patterns. We discussed patterns that double, and many students brought in the vocabulary of even and odd after using numbers to describe each pattern.

We also took up Pattern Detective, and co created a success criteria checklist that students then referred to when completing a parallel pattern detective task. 

Grade 2 students built foundational knowledge of the different types of boats when completing their "East Coast Boats" booklets. 

Grade 3 students began considering the question "What type of structure would you build on a river?" 

Have a wonderful weekend, enjoy the outdoors. Remember: Every day is Earth day!
