Me on the Map: We have been creating a map section in our Social Studies notebook. We began with our classroom map and added our city, state, country, continent and planet.
The students here are writing in their Writer's notebook. There are lots of right places to write.
    We are reading a spin off book from the Mercy Watson series about animal control officer Francine Poulet for read aloud. |  We have explored Zz, Ww, ng, Vv and the two sounds of oo in the past two weeks. Our big words to learn have been my and have. See if you can find a way to keep exposing your child to these two words so they become more familiar.  |     In math we have been continuing with odd and even, adding on the abacus, exploring parallel and perpendicular lines, quadrilaterals and right angles and using tally marks. Questions to ask: How many sides does a quadrilateral have? Do you see any parallel lines in the kitchen? |
I cannot show you any pictures of our weather projects because they are top secret for EXPO, but you hopefully have seen the surveys. We will be compiling our data and documenting our findings. We got a really super cool weather station donated to our class by Nora's family which we finished installing today!
Of all the things that have happened in the past two weeks, the tornado warnings were perhaps the most exciting. Here the owls are huddled in an interior closet of the theater in their Halloween costumes.
