Cleared for Takeoff ✈️
Flight: 3rd Grade
Pilot: Mrs. Sanders
Mrs. Sanders’ 3rd grade class was working hard today on multiplying on a number line! Students were learning in a variety of ways—from whole-group instruction to small-group practice and hands-on opportunities to model their thinking. They were building understanding, explaining their reasoning, and showing what they know.
