This time of year gets so busy! I am posting lists of things we have done during the last 3 days, and there was a lot!
Morning Meetings: learning letter sound songs, shape songs
Reading/Writing: Alliteration (same sounds used multiple times in a series of words: Silly Sam the Snake slithered softly.) and Idioms (means something other than a literal translation: (a student remembered this one!) You are driving me up a wall!), reading Zebra and the Bug, Magic School Bus Explores the Senses
Math: Ways to Make Numbers (4-10), using the terms "addends" (numbers you add together) and "sum" (the whole amount)
Science: Answering the question: Can we put an insect in a sealed container and create an environment in which it will survive? We are exploring the idea by creating a terrarium with rocks, soil, living plants, and insects inside a sealed soda bottle. (With our Reading Buddies)
Centers and making habitats for our paper frogs from our Field Trip
Planting plants in our license plate containers to decorate the front entrance of our school.
Have a wonderful weekend! Stay tuned for pictures from our DanWalt Gardens Field Trip.
Thank you,
Miss Kimpton
