Closing out the classroom this year looks a lot different than last year when all I had to do was close down Zoom. Tons of great memories with the best of the best group of kids!
Students have been exceptionally curious about the conflict in Ukraine so I found an article for us to read that helped us understand the why. They had amazing discussion & then we wrote words of encouragement for a sunflower garden bulletin board 🌻🇺🇦

Much egg-citement over the equations egg hunt today! 1/2 had an equation and they had to find the other 1/2 that had the corresponding answer 🥚 It was practice for multiplication, place value, and ways to add to 100.

A fractions scoot. There was a fraction to decipher on each desk & they had 20 seconds to write their answer before moving to the next question. Kids who first thought 20 seconds was too fast, picked up speed after about 3 rotations & even started dancing to the timer music!
Student: How many days do we have left of school?

Student: Well, we'll just have to make the best of the days we have left!
Me: 💯😭
