A Big Bite

Happy Friday!! It was a short week in room 23 but we accomplished a great deal!! It was so busy in fact that I didn't get a chance to take many pictures; sorry 😢.  We continue to share books that we love and enjoy our Friday Morning Dance Party.  We have been reading like writers and writing like readers in reader's and writer's workshop!  We have been reading non fiction books about dogs and writing essays about the perfect dog for our family. We are developing ideas for essays in writer's workshop and are looking forward to choosing a topic to take to publication.  We continue to work on fractions in math and will have a test this coming Tuesday (a study guide was sent home on Thursday).  Our study of the United States has started with a tour of the Northeast and as part of Project Based Learning with Mrs. E, we are researching National Parks.  In science, we are continuing to study animal and plant adaptations.  In technology workshop, we are writing scripts to create, "how to" videos; such fun!!! In poetry workshop we learned about Robert Frost and will be writing free verse poems using strong imagery in the next few weeks.  Click here to listen to Robert Frost read his poem  The Road Not Taken.  Ask your child about it, I am sure that it will be a fascinating discussion. 😇
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Williams
