Face the Facts!

October is "Face the Facts" month at Discovery.  This is our chance to show how much we LOVE math!  We focus in on fun and challenging ways to use math throughout the day!

There will be
1)  math stories
2) math facts
3) math puzzles
4) math games
5) morning message math
6) Town Square math
7) even math in Dr. Nelson's morning announcements!
We had a Town Square Gathering to Celebrate the 
Kick-of for 
Face the Facts Month!

Dr. Nelson read a math story...

using the smart board so all could see!  
Chicka Chicka 1 2 3!

Ms. Schroeder and Ms. Anderson explained the 
homework
and all the other fun activities for the month.


Every child at Discovery will be bringing home a math challenge sheet.  For Kindies this is a half sheet of paper with 12 things on it to practice.  When it is all done, send it back with a parent signature and your child will get an award!  THIS SHEET IS COMING HOME TODAY IN THE TUESDAY FOLDER!!!

We will wrap up our Math Celebration on October 31st with a treat of apple slices and caramel sauce and a math-a-thon* with the other Kindie class.

It is a fun-filled month!

* math-a-thon = math games, toys, manipulatives all out at once to play and explore with!
