The students were very excited to have an Expert on Call from Am 800 in the classroom.  Leah Hanson brought a tape recorder with a microphone to show the students have voices are recorded on the radio.  Each student had the opportunity to say their name into the microphone.  Stay tuned for Friday's broadcast to be attached to the class blog!

Learning caught on camera -- Friday's Highlights

This boy made a spaceship out of Lego.  Together we observed the shapes (small and big rectangles) he created using yellow and black, drew them on paper, then adding a title - 'Spaceship'.

Literacy Bags have been a great success.  Students have been sharing some of their work.  Thank you to all parents for participating and working with your child.  If you have returned the first bag, another will be coming home on Monday!

Students used various manipulatives from around the room!
 


 
Students took turns creating the class calendar.  We will add pictures and key words to help recall important events that have occurred in the classroom.




Going on a NATURE HUNT!

We found potato bugs, worms and snails!
 
 
 
We picked vegetables from the school's Community Garden. 
Later, we washed and cut them to share at the snack table.
 
 
 
We made a Text to Self and World Connection.  We read the story 'We're Going On A Nature Hunt' by Steve Metzger, and compared our adventures!
