When we thin the new rows of kale and carrots, Maybelline gets a treat!

We learned about the pea family last week in gardening.  This flower has a banner, a blade and a keel.

This week we are learning about cotyledons, monocots and dicots.  We have an experiment going with bean and corn seeds.  Mono means one and di means two.

In solar science we made a solar oven in a pizza box.

 We are working hard to finish building the Calavera STEAM projects because we still have to write them up.  Some students are finished with the critter book, and we will soon be putting our recommendations into practice.

In math we have been learning a few special multiplication facts...6x6, 8x8, and 3x4. We are primarily trying to gain an understanding of the connection between repeated addition and multiplication...the bigger picture of what the x symbol means.   I hope you are working on the 3's and 4's at home.  We need your help to master them.  Play practice is the other significant piece of our weekly effort, but we have also been learning about contractions (fan boys) and prepositions.  We have taken on new cursive letters like e and worked in spelling with consonant clusters and vowel pairs.  In reading, one group has a lit circle with Rules, a book by Cynthia Lord.  Other reading groups work with Brooke. We are all working on comprehension as well as fluency.  We are also planning our class Christmas party/food drive.  We drew Secret Santa names today.
