Today's Leader is...Gina the Giraffe! Gina is a reticulated giraffe. Giraffes are one of my favorite animals! Here is a great fiction story about a giraffe: Giraffes Can't Dance
Today is April 14, 2020.
Gina and Darla have been learning some new words in French:
giraffe: girafe (GEE-raff, with a soft /g/)
tall: grand (grawnd)
neck: cou (koo)
Try these:
1. did you ever feed a giraffe they have very long tongues
2. Those giraffes ate ated a lot of leaves.
3. has neck. a quite That long giraffe
Today's Math Challenge!
Remember how we added two-digit numbers yesterday? Try these! Remember to add the ones first:
32+12 14+11 23+23 18+11
Extra challenge! The giraffe at 25 leaves. Then he ate 24 more. How many leaves did he eat in all?
