Week of May 13th, 2013

We are building a farm on our bulletin board.  Our farm has horses, cows, pigs, and chicken.  You should check it out!  We will be adding more things that a farm needs and some vegetable and fruit gardens!  Here are some students creating our animals. 


Students listened to Go Away, Big Green Monster! without seeing the pictures.  They had to use the describing words to help them make a picture of the monster.  This was to help students to use describing words in their new narrative writing pieces.  Students are writing fictional stories about an animal that has a problem.

Math Centers



Students tried out Try-A-Tiles at one of the math centers this week.  Students use tiles with the numbers 0 through 9 and must find a place for them on their board.  The boards work on different skills such as ordering numbers, comparing numbers, addition, and subtraction.  This center requires perseverance in order to solve the puzzles!  Students worked on Telling Time and Zoom on the Ipads.  Students at the game center played Sum Swamp and Minus Maze.

These students are hard at work at their Daily 5 Centers.













During math today, students created 3-D structures and had to turn them into 2-D pictures.

We did not have new Word Wall words this week.  We are busy reviewing all of the words we have learned this year!
