What We Learned About

We learned about balancing in Science.  And we cut out cardboard when we were done with our sheet about stable positions.  For chapter book we are reading Dear Mr. Henshaw.  The boy in the story, Leigh, was mad at Mr. Henshaw because he didn't like his words.

A Very Good Day

Today we played on new iPads.  Everyone had fun on them.  In Science we taped popsicle sticks to our desks and tried to balance two shapes.  To make it easier, we took two clothes pins and put them on the shapes.  In Reading we are learning about a story called Officer Buckle and Gloria.  Officer Buckle told people safety rules.  So we made our own safety rules and made a picture.

Learning About Balance

In Science we balanced a paper crayfish on our fingers.  We used clothes pins to help.  We wrote about it in our Learning Logs.  In Math we did regrouping.  In Guidance we had to guess what the people were doing.  We had Writer's Workshop time.

A Good Day at School

All week we are learning how to regroup in Math.   We also did our checklist.  Then we did MAP test.  We did something new in Word Study.  It was our Think-tac-toe.  We have to do Buddy Check sometime, and two other things to make a tic-tac-toe.  Kaleigh was Calendar Helper.  We made lists about Martin Luther King, Jr., and made a Wordle about him.

Things We Did Today

We learned about Martin Luther King, Jr. and regrouping.  Today was Martin Luther King day.  We did a poem about him too.  It was our first day using the cubes for Math.  We used the cubes to regroup.  Regrouping means that you can make two numbers into another 10.  Destiny is our student of the week.  We got to go to Mrs. Schlickbernd's room and watch a movie about caves.
