What a busy week!

It has been so long since we have posted on the blog! We had to squeeze a lot of learning into only 3 days!

 

Writing – We finished our winter poems this week! We wrote cinquain poems and illustrated them using water colors 🙂

Math – We worked on story problems where we have to find the difference. We compared the quantity diagram to fact families. We also presented our shape projects to all of the fourth graders! We set them around the room like a shape museum. Lastly, we worked on graphing! We made bar graphs of all of our favorite foods.

Social Studies – We started our unit about past and present! We read about people who lived in the past. We are going to learn more about history!

Reading – In reading we are learning about how characters change throughout the story. Character has different traits in the beginning of the story than they do at the end of the story. The events in the story cause the characters to change. Also we switched reading groups! We are all moving up levels 🙂 We are almost finished with Charlotte’s Web! We only have 9 pages left! We are so excited to finish and watch the movie next week.

Science – We did a gummy bear experiment. We let the gummy bears sit in water overnight and in the morning they grew! They were almost twice as big. They were even more squishy.

 

Coming up:

– We are so excited we are getting a new student on Monday! His name is Adam so we are going to have two Adams now.

– On Friday, we are going to have a Valentine’s Day breakfast just for us! We are going to decorate bags and we can all bring in Valentines for our everyone in the class.
