It's Been One Busy Week

Boy has it been a busy week! My students have been rehearsing for their Japanese play about a giant turnip. They were so excited. We started our unit on place value. I find that thanks to doing place value during calendar they have pretty much mastered this skill at the first grade level so I have started to introduce them to 2nd and 3rd grade place value skills. I pretty much totally revamped the the book's suggested place value lessons and I have made my own unit out of things I've made and a few things I've found.
