Happy birthday Earl!


A big SHOUT OUT to EARL....  HAPPY  6th BIRTHDAY!!!!



Today in math we worked on shapes using sticks. Understanding where corners and side are in our shapes and what makes a shape.  If the animals can get out of the shape then it is not a shape!  We concentrated on triangles today.  We made triangles with sticks, with our bodies and we drew them as well.  







In Language Arts we continue to make connections with books. Perhaps we know something about the book just by looking at its cover, background knowledge. Or maybe it "reminds us of something." When we are reminded of something it is a way we are making connections to the book.  We read Big Birthday, by Kate Hosford. "Annabelle is determined to have a birthday that stands out from the rest. But wearing spacesuits and partying where there is no atmosphere create some challenges that Annabelle didn't expect. Will her out-of-this-world birthday still be a blast?"
We also began learning new letters Xx and Yy. Only two more letters to learn and we will have gotten through the entire alphabet!
       



Silent reading.... lots of quiet readers in this class.
