Cheering Our Words and Making Seven

When we learn our vocabulary words we want to do something that will help every student remember those words.  We love to cheer our new words because it allows children to see the word, hear the word, feel the word, and say the word.  This allows all types of learners a chance to accurately learn the new words.  Below is a video of our students learning a new vocabulary word.


Our first graders have also been working on different ways to make numbers.  Today they were working on making the number seven.  We worked as a team to make gumball machines with seven gumballs.  The trick was that they all had to be different!  We have some great thinkers and they really worked hard to solve the problem! Great job boys!

Jordan, T.J., and Graiden did a fabulous job making seven.  I was SO proud!
