Math Wednesday

Today in math we were skip counting by 2's and 4's. We also wrote what we noticed about skip counting. We used marker on the hundreds chart and colored in the multiples of 2 and then the multiples of 4. We noticed that if you count by 2 and 4 their multiples are always even and we noticed that 2 is half of 4.

Peg was 12 years old when she was struck with polio.  There are 3 kinds of polio. There is spinal, respiratory, and bulbar polio. Spinal is when you are paralyzed.  Respiratory is when you can't breathe well. Bulbar is when it is hard to talk and swallow. Peg had all three kinds.  Now we are at the part where Peg is starting to get better.
