A Full Week of Learning!

Science...
The students enjoyed learning about air and parachutes.  They learned about air resistance and had fun making and flying their own parachutes. Ask your child how to make one and maybe you can try it together at home!


Reading...
The students made retelling ropes and used them to retell the story, Shelia Rae the Brave.  You can see them working hard with their partners to retell the story while discussing the characters, setting, problem and solution in the story.

 Emily and Michelle are looking over their retelling ropes!

Gina and Pavla are using the retelling rope to help them as they discuss the story!


Math...
The students have been practicing how to work during math centers.  In the centers they worked with a partner to play the game "Rolling for 50".  The students had a lot of fun practicing how to count  on a number grid.



Travis and Danna are math partners and trying to see who gets to 50 first!

Wiggle Break...
A favorite part of our day... just look below as their faces say it all!




A very special thank you to all the parents who attended Open House!  I had a great turn out and appreciate all your support in the classroom as well as at home!
