Third Week of School

Some of the highlights of our third week of school include a math study of attributes and characteristics of an item. We practiced describing an item and finding the similarities and differences between items. You can view our ball description activity where we used describing words to talk about different types of balls. I have also included a picture of our attribute train activity where our students had to find a shape and tell how it was similar to the shape that the student had laid down before them. They could find it to be similar in color, size, thickness, shape, etc. Finally, we learned how to use a Venn diagram to compare/contrast items. We compared bears and blue items. We found that some items were both blue and bears. 

At the same time, we were studying about our community helpers. We had an opportunity to meet some of our community helpers and learn about their jobs. Our students created a Keynote presentation which shows them dressed up as the community helper that they hope to be in the future.

Finally, we enjoyed a day with our grandparents this week. In honor of Grandparents' Day, we created a slide show which includes the music that we sang to them that day and pictures from our event. We are so very thankful to all of our grandparents who attended! We hope you had a wonderful time!
