Volunteer Appreciation & more

We worked really hard on fractions and these are just some of the things we did to learn them.

This is a fraction game that you roll the dice and the fraction you land on, you have to say what it is.  If you don't get it correct you loose your turn.



We learned how to sort equal and unequal fractions.


The Super Scientist showed us how to blow up a balloon with out helium- way cool!!!




We made Fraction Catepillars.  So cute!!



We had Volunteer Appreciation this week. I was astounded by the love shown to them!!!




Check out this spread!!  That just screams LOVE!!




This is the anchor chart I made to show what measurement is and all the different ways/things to measure.




This is one of our eggs.  I do hope they all hatch!!



Our Super Star this week read the Lorax.  She did an amazing job!!

Storms

We just happen to be writing about storms this week in class.  Can you imagine our excitement when it started raining outside.  The class WANTED to be in silent mode so we could hear the rain and thunder while we worked- can you imagine!!!  I am so excited myself I had to write about it too!!!

We now have thunder and the lights even went out (briefly)- what a great way to write a story on storms!

Not all things are included!!

As I am looking back on the blog, I am noticing that I have done a pretty poor job of taking pictures of all the exciting things we do in class.  Sure I have some pictures, but not all.  I noticed I don't have anything for our 101st day of school or snowball fight (by the way- we won!!!).  I hope to do better in the future.  Please know there literally is so much happening in the classroom- it is hard to capture it all in a picture!
