Third Grade Update - Jan 17

Congratulations to Ava Barvian who won our Kalah Tournament.  She was able to beat four competitors.  Next week we'll be doing an activity called Hanoi's Tower.  This is a problem that requires a great deal of concentration to complete.  There is also a formula to figure out the "answer".  Your child will be bringing home their own version of this puzzle to practice and show to you.

We also worked on our critical thinking activity. I asked the children to come up with five criteria (fact based) that they would use to choose a restaurant for the family. It's always very interesting to see what they feel is important when making these kinds of decisions.
