The function machine!

We learned how the function machine works!

First is the 'in' box...

Four kids went into the function machine
 
 
Next is the 'rule'...
 
 
Add one kid!
 


 
Finally, we use the 'out' box...
 
Five kids came out of the function machine!

We got out our old friends!




We Went to the Post Office and...

Met the Post Master!  She is the highest federal official in Belmont.





 Went behind the scenes...
 
 

 
we learned that big boxes go in bins before they are delivered.  You can also mail butterflies!
 
 




we learned about mail truck safety.  Do you think the mail carrier can see you if you approach the truck?

Birthday cupcakes

Jack brought special MSU cupcakes to celebrate his birthday!  Each had a football ring on them in a heap of green or white frosting!  Our faces say it all!

Math Games

We have been playing several math games this week!  We practice counting by 1's on the calculator!  We learned about the dime and how we can trade it for 10 pennies!  We also played a dice rolling game, adding two dice together.  We learned that 6, 7, and 8 have the most combinations!  It was harder to roll a 2 and a 12!
