What a COLD, COLD, Day!!!!!
Grier warmed us up though when she read The TRUE Story of the Three Little Pigs! What a funny story! We really enjoyed it!
We are beginning to receive some holiday cards from schools around the country. So far, we have cards from Atlanta, GA; Yorba Linda, CA; Glendale, AZ and one from a school in central New Jersey. Today, we used Google Earth to zoom in on the school in Glendale, AZ.
Our card is ready except for one absentee student. Hopefully he will be feeling better tomorrow and we can send our cards out.
We read the book Thesaurus Rex and made of list of words that we are just plain tired of writing and then created a list of juicy words to replace them. No more "nice, good, stuff, things..." We're "juicing it up!"
Be sure and take a look at the student writing pages (link on the right)! Mashal, Gavin, and Christopher added their stories today. More to come!
We read the book If the Moon Could Talk and shared our mental images. We've connected our reading and writing and understand that our words have to create a mental image in the minds of OUR readers as well.
In math, 2nd graders played Addition Spinner Games (different levels of ability) and 1st graders completed their Unit 3 checking progress. Then they played domino top it.
Homefun is due tomorrow!!!! DRESS WARM!
