This Week's News.....BOO!

This week in Social Studies we learned about landforms. We made a dough and put it in a landform mold. When it dries we will paint it and label the landforms. In Math, we did Candy Corn math, where we practiced multiplication and division fact families. In Reader’s Workshop we’ve been working on making good connections to what we read. We read Duck for President and Roberto the Insect Architect. We also read The Wall by Eve Bunting and learned about Veteran’s Day (coming up on November 11th). In Writer’s Workshop we’ve been practicing writing great leads, which are the first sentences of the story to hook the reader! In P.E. we started basketball. In Art we painted Picassos. Our postcard exchange project is going great! This week we received 8 new postcards. We now have postcards from 15 of the 50 states. Today is HALLOWEEN! We have our parade at 1:30 and our party afterwards. We brought LOTS of goodies! Our class’s ball chair project was fully funded on the Donor’s Choose website! We will soon have 6 large exercise balls to use as chairs! Thanks to everyone who donated money for our classroom!
