PICTURES AND NEWS FROM WEEK OF 11-23

We did lots of measuring this week. We used cubes and paper

clips to measure objects in the room and in our book.

We worked in cooperative groups to measure 

really big things like our table!

First we tried counting the cubes by ones.

We quickly found out that counting by tens was much easier!

We wrote our own fairy tales! We will read them to you

after our play, THE RUNAWAY UNICORN, on

Tuesday, Dec. 8th at 8:30.

We are learning about light in science. We

had fun exploring with mirrors this week.

We did lots of activities in response to

Cinderella. First we listened to the story.

We wrote the three wishes we would love to

have a fairy godmother grant us.  We also

did a word search and challenge math paper

that counted wheels on many coaches.

We made our own magic wands.

We had fun practicing nouns, adjectives and verbs with

our peer helpers by playing MadLibs.

Second Grade came and read us Thanksgiving stories. They also

shared a special treat that they had made for us!

It was a short and exciting week!

Happy Thanksgiving!
