It was great to see all of the grandparents and grandpeople on Friday. The students enjoyed showing them around the classroom, reading with them, and then having goodies with them. Overall, it was a fun morning for everyone.
This week we will be continuing to talk about how God watches over us and cares for us. We will also talk about how Jesus helped others and how we in turn can help others like Jesus.
In Superkids, we will finish up unit 2 and begin unit 3. In unit 3 we will learn about words with /ng/ and /le/. Students will also read their second Super-Duper magazine, "Shoes to Choose." We will also work on asking, writing, and answering questions.
For math this week students will work on counting backwards, adding 1 facts, and time of day. We are doing well on learning our double facts and will continue to practice them everyday.
Our dinosaur inquiry unit is going well and we are starting to talk about how the earth looked different when the dinosaurs were around. This week we will continue looking at landforms in the US and creating our landform map. We will also look at how plants and animals have changed over time by creating a timeline.
Last week, Friday, students began investigating the materials they will use to make their sailboats. They looked at how the materials act in water, do they float or sink, and how they act with wind. They were able to begin getting ideas for what materials they would like to use for their sailboats. This week in lab, they will begin planning out their boat designs by drawing and labeling the materials they will use and how they will use them.
