Wonderful Wednesday


Giorgio, our child of the day, read Look Up, Look Down. Thanks for sharing such a GREAT book!

We continued our whirlwind tour of Europe as visited Latvia, Russia, Denmark, and Sweden. We updated our passports and then landed back in Bartlett!

We received cards today from York, PA; Redmond, OR; and from Maui!!!!

We read their card and then took a look at the map and where Hawaii is located. We learned what an island is: Land completely surrounded by water. We learned a little about how the islands were formed and even learned that our school friends, Kula Elementary School, is located on the slope of a volcano.

We zoomed in on the islands using Google Earth. Lots of WATER!!! Then we pulled up the school's website and looked at their school activities. We wrote them an email and asked questions about their school. We are hoping they write us back soon!

We took our vision and hearing tests today. 2nd Graders took MAP for math.

In math, we created tally charts, pictographs, and bar graphs and then analyzed the data. We also worked on coordinate grids.

Tomorrow we have P.E. and music. Be sure and wear appropriate shoes.
