Themed+Learning

In Week 10 we held our Student-led Conferences. We all shared our learning with our families, letting them know what we are successful at and also what we need to work on next. It was great to show all the work we have been doing and confusing our parents with our math strategies for addition and subtraction! Here are some pic os us talking about all the stuff we do in room19. We are very proud of ourselves!
