In continuing with this theme, we read a book called Westward to Oregon and talked about the character traits of the main character and her parents. We then made some funny posters about us with our character traits. They should be coming home this weekend. Have them show you what they look like.
In Math, we did a lot of mental arithmetic. We learned a few tricks to help us to this in our head. One way is to look for numbers that add up to 10. Please remember to practice math facts at home.
In writing we made an analogy of writing a story with making chicken soup. The student loved deciding what "ingredients" should be in their soup (story). On Monday, we will be making a recipe card with these ingredients.
In Social Studies, we pretended to be types of transportation and delivered our toy that we made in our factory last week to the store to be sold. In Science, we experimented with our solids to see if they would sink or float in a pail of water.
Keep warm and enjoy the snow?????
