Frisbee Golf

 Last week, students had the opportunity to play frisbee golf during our physical education class. Check out some of the pictures below. 

Math - place value games

 Each student received a deck of cards from me. These cards will be used during math activities to reinforce concepts being taught. This week, students were using the cards to play against another students to create the biggest number possible using their 4,5, or 6 cards. This reinforced that the biggest number needed to go first and students had to remember what each number represented (ones, tens, hundreds, thousands).

Check out the pictures to see some of the cards.
