🌺 November 8 - November 10 🌺


(The students colored, cut and arranged the flower to make a special Poppy to honor Remembrance Day - This is the display on our classroom door) 

Ask your child about the learning we did this week...

LA - We read the book What Does Peace Feel Like? and connected our writing with feelings of Peace in what we see, hear, smell, taste and touch.  Click on Check It Out to see our work. It is wonderful to read that students connect Peace with "Mom's cooking," "Petting my dog," "Playing with my friends," "My family together"

Math - We continued increasing and decreasing number patterns using challenging numbers (1 - 1000).  We also looked at representing our problem solving answers using base ten drawing, number sentences and word sentences. 

Science - We concluded our science project and created fun riddles using up to 5 characteristics to describe a mammal, fish, bird, reptile or amphibian.  Then we made fingerprint art and transformed our fingerprint into the animals. Click on Check It Out to see our work. 

Social Studies
- We are loading the plane and heading to Peru. I wonder what the landscape and climate is like there?  I wonder if children in Peru like the same things we like? Click on Check It Out to see the beginning of our research notes.

 Hop residency - students will be participating in a HIP HOP residency during PE this week.  We will be video taping students on Friday and sending each grade a link to share with parents as we are unable to have our usual showcase performance for parents.  Therefore - on Friday November 19 all students are invited to wear CASUAL CLOTHING to showcase some hip hop moves ( jeans, t-shirts, hats, sunglasses etc)
