Project Week

I am so excited for this week. On Wednesday, the last of over 20 turkeys in disguise should be appearing in our classroom. They are hoping they will not be recognized as a turkey and spared this Thanksgiving.

Also due this week are Transportation Projects. The students were suppose to create a project that showed different types of transportation. They should be able to talk about the different vehicles and how they travel. This is always a fun project.

With the short week this week and all of our wonderful projects we will not be having regular sharing this week or next. Instead the students will be sharing and discussing their at home projects.

GOING ON A SHAPE HUNT




During the last two weeks we have been exploring shapes. During this unit we went on walking field trips around our school looking for shapes in the environment. Some of the new information that students learned about shapes was that all shapes with 4 sides are grouped together in a category call QUADRILATERALS.
