What a Fun Week!!

I am so proud of my kids! They are hard little workers and we are "on the go"all the time.  They have learned so much in a short amount of time.  Here are a few things we have been working on:

WRITING
*Smiley Sentences-We just learned about this so it is fairly new to the kids.  Ask your child if they remember "smiley sentences."

*Writing narratives-the kids are working on writing stories.  We have been talking about "zooming in" on one small topic (the seed) rather than one big top (the watermelon).
For example:  instead of writing about a whole trip to Disneyworld, the kids focus in on one small detail..a favorite ride.


SOCIAL STUDIES
*We have been talking about our school family so the kids worked in pairs to interview a school worker.  We will finish up our final writing and portraits this week.  Be sure to check our bulletin board in the next week or so.  They are doing a wonderful job with this task.

Pajama Party!

Yes it is true...the kids can wear pajamas to school tomorrow. They earned a "brownie" party for great behavior.  They were so excited!  They voted on a pajama party....so, wear your favorite "jammies" to school tomorrow.  Please make sure they are appropriate for school.

Room 4 Rock Stars!

We love to have fun while we are learning!  In social studies, we worked on a unit about getting along with others.  There are many songs that go along with our units and we like to make them fun!  We decided to form a band with and have some fun!  I think there are a few future rock stars in room 4!

Rockstars

 
We are all about having fun while we learn!  We created a band while learning a social studies song about working together.  I think there area few "rockstars" in my class!  Stay tuned for videos!

Learning From Each Other

We recently completed a Social Studies unit on how we learn from each other.  Check us out doing a partner activity on being good listeners.
