Yoga Day Tomorrow!

The magnetic force of a magnet can pass through many materials....even plastic and styrofoam!


In Math today, we learned a new mental math strategy: make ten.  Ask your child how they would use this strategy to answer the math sentence: 9 + 6

Thank you RBES' for your generous donations!

WOW!  The families of RBES are unbelievably giving!  Today we had the Devon Christmas Elves Presentation Assembly.  The Kinders collected just under 1000 food items and the 4H collected 305 toys!

Hot Lunch Tomorrow

Such a cute bunch!

  • Please send Home Reading to school with your child
  • Word Sort Test is tomorrow - the Oddball word is put
In Math this week, we worked on Mystery Addition and Subtraction sentences.  Students used a number line to help figure out the mystery number.  We also learned that the order in addition does not matter and the order in subtraction does matter.  An example of Mystery math sentences look like this:

____ + 8 = 15

17 - ____ = 9

Below is a link to a fun game that we played to help strengthen basic fact skills.  We called it Magic 11!
