Guest reader and light

March 6,  2018

Today we had a guest reader. She works in a dentist office and read us a great book, I Lost My Tooth in Africa.  Then she gave us each a bag of dental supplies. The highlight was the timer to make sure we brush long enough. 



Learning about light...

Today we used Mystery Science to learn about light. We learned about transparent, translucent and opaque. Then we sorted some materials.

I love to read week day 1 and 2

February 26 & 27

We love reading and are celebrating this week using Dr. Seuss books. 

On Monday, we read Fox in Socks, wore crazy or mismatched socks and had a barefoot morning meeting. Then we decorated some socks for the fox. They are displayed in the hallway.


We also read The Foot book and then made our own version by tracing and measuring our feet. 


Mrs. Smith made us some fun and yummy green eggs. 

We also stopped everything to read.

We love Valentine’s day! ❤️

February 14,2018

For math today, we practiced fact families using hearts that were hiding around the classroom. 



Our favorite activity of the day was to pass out our valentines for our classmates. We got so many great cards and a lot of candy! 


This afternoon we sorted and graphed conversation hearts. Then we did a science experiment to see if conversation hearts will sink or float in water, soda and vinegar. We left them overnight to see what happens.
