We have just begun looking at Primes, Composites, Multiples and Factors in math. 

Learning Intentions
What did you learn today?
We are learning about Primes and Composite numbers in Math. 
How did you show what you learned?
We colored in charts to show the difference, we looked for patterns and began establishing some rules to decide if a number is Prime or composite. 
What do you need to learn next?
We need to apply this understanding to multiples and factors. Ask me what some rules might be about Prime numbers.
