Mr. Leo is COOL!

Our artist in residence visited today for our 3rd visit. We have only 3 left. Today we worked on shifting 2-D shapes into 3-D shapes. We also worked on tracing the outside line of a shape. Later, we added details by including inside lines.

Overarching of all Mr. Leo is inspiring us to be CONFIDENT artists, making decisions and if a “mistake” happens — who cares? Keep moving and FINISH THE RACE!!!

Great Math Poems Online…answer the riddle at the end to get to the next poem!

Try showing your stuff by practicing your 3′s times tables here. Remember, you can add together a double of a factor and a 1 times the factor to equal a 3 times…for example: 3×7 is the same as 2×7 + 1×7. http://mathstory.com/numberthiefstory3/numberthiefstory3-1.aspx

Wish to practice your 9′s times tables…and be entertained with some fancy rhyming (and there are a slew of synonyms in the first of the poems!)…
