T.W.A.S. Oct. 7-10th

It was a short week but it was busy! Here are the highlights:

K: We wrote a paragraph about the story "Stone Soup."  The themes of the story are community, being thankful, giving, and gratitude. 
L: A new character was introduced in The One and Only Ivan named Ruby, a baby elephant.
L: In math groups we are working on place value and addition.  Today we made a place value puzzle matching 4-6 digit numbers with their expanded form. 
T: In Literacy groups we started working on persuasive writing.  Some of the topics were: should students have extra recess; should students chew gum in school; should students have as many books as they want from the library; and should students have homework? Ask me which issue I chose.
A: In Science we are working on a presentation about saving the wetlands.  We have to research information and then we are making either a GoogleSlide Presentation, a poster, or an iMovie.

Have a great fall break - see you on October 21st!

   
 

Wetland Field Trip

On September 26 our class was able to visit Ralph Klein Park as part of the Science study of Wetlands.  We were able to enjoy a beautiful day; first with a pond dip studying aquatic invertebrates, then a nature walk, and of course, playing at the fabulous outdoor play structure.

Thank you to ConocoPhillips (who sponsored the entire trip - including the bussing) and the parent volunteers for their hard work throughout the day!

We also did a summary of a new novel called ''The One And Only Ivan''.
We also posted a new video about our fake [fiction] story's on Iris.
