Week 35

 Dear Parents,

                 This week in math we continued with our graphing unit as we looked at bar graphs and pictographs to ask and solve our own questions. We took our assessment on Thursday. Next we will begin our economics unit to close out the year!

                 In writing we took three days to create a very special Mother’s Day gift. It touched my heart to read them and I know you will treasure each word your child wrote about you! . We then got back to our research about the Great White Shark. We looked at the information we collected and composed sentences with the information about how they look and where they live.

                 In reading /social studies we focused on  Cinco de Mayo on Monday. The children were given Tortillas and honey if they wanted to try them. We then focused on the story of Aladdin. We did many fun activities to get ready for our field trip today .We read a scholastic News about a very cute hippo and answered the questions together.

                  In science we continued on looking at characteristics and behaviors in animals and how they help them get food, water and air to survive. We talked about the benefits of living in groups and camouflage. We learned that some animals actually use tools to get food! We are so interested in this unit!

                   This week was packed with so many fun activities! I was so proud of my class at the spring concert! They were amazing! We finished our Mother’s Day Gifts, our pillowcases, had Muffins with Moms and went on a field trip! And through all this you and your children spoiled me all week for teacher appreciation week. I loved all the cards, flowers, snacks a hugs I got each day. Your children are the BEST gift!
