5 senses

For our final project with our 5 senses unit, we made popcorn! We were able to use ALL our senses!! I hope your child went home and told you WHY we ate popcorn!
Patiently waiting for the popcorn to come out!

They were SO excited to see the popcorn fall into the bowl!
 We filled out a paper describing what we saw, felt, smelt, heard and tasted! It was good practice to copy from the board!

Enjoying our 5 senses snack!

Math Stations

We have been working hard on what it looks like to be working at a math station with a partner. This week, we brainstormed a list of things students should be doing and what the teacher should be doing. (It was funny to hear their ideas of what I should be doing...Some said I should be talking to teachers!)
We practiced how to work in our math stations by following our rules. We also got to practice what NOT to do! They thought this was quite entertaining!! Here is a picture of our Math Station Rules (expectations).

Week 4

This week, we read the story, Pete the Cat I Love my White Shoes. On Friday, we got to wear our favorite shoes to school! Here is a picture of us with our Favorite Shoes! We also made a book that will be on display in our classroom.
In writing this week, we worked on adding a setting to our picture. We came up with some great settings (pool, Wal-Mart, Target, aquarium, park, etc) We have a lot to remember now with writing. We have to draw a person (us) with all our features and now a setting, can't forget to use appropriate colors!!

We got to learn and play with 3 new centers!
