WToday we harvested the Pond Cove gardens and we are donating the food to Judy's pantry. We also composted the dead broccoli plants and flowers. We had fun smelling plants and flowers.
Our class used team work to find items in Natureland on a scavenger hunt. Some of the items were pine trees, sunflower seeds and picking up trash.
-In math we created fact family houses to learn our multiplication and division facts.
-We're learning more cursive letters everyday for example a, c, t, h and g.
-In science we created hoppers with elastic bands and cardboard and used a ruler to see how high they could jump. This activity helped us to learn more about the forces of push and pull. Then we worked together to see if we could change the hopper to make it jump higher.
-In reading we started a new read aloud called The Fantastic Secret of Owen Jester.
We're working on choosing "just right" books and using our reading logs to set goals for more reading.
To help us better understand what we're reading we learned how to "Stop and Jot":
1. What is happening?
2. Who is the character?
3. Where is the character now?
-Writing: We are practicing telling true stories and using storytelling voices by adding action and dialogue. Some of our true stories are about important people or places.
