Writer's Workshop
We did something very special this week! We celebrated our growth as writers by having a "Writer's Museum." Each child chose one piece of writing they were particularly proud of and put it on display.
Then, we walked around reading each other stories. It's one thing when your teacher compliments your story, it's another thing all together though when your peers do!
Math
This week we are learning how to collect data on survey questions, represent data in various ways, and then discuss our findings. We even created our own survey questions to ask our classmates.
 |
| Some of the survey questions asked included would you rather be a horse or a tiger.... |
 |
| Are you 6 or 7..... |
 |
| Would you rather eat cheese pizza or pepperoni pizza? |
Sharing!
 |
| Our resident astronomer taught us all about planets, space stations and black holes! |
 |
| We also learned about Daisy meetings and costume making! |
Mystery Readers!
This week was holiday themed....

| A silly story by a local author about a retired Santa |
 |
| And a holiday classic about the first gift of Christmas |
