I hope you had a great week!  We have been super busy measuring objects in our room using inches, centimeters, feet and yards!  We are also ready to start building our bridges!  We worked with our group to sketch and label our design and we will start building on Monday! Ask your child about their group's design.  You can ask them about the materials they are using and what they are using to support their structure.  

Speaking of materials, we are in need of craft sticks and cardboard boxes.  We will need a piece of cardboard to build our bridges on.  This will make it easier for us to transport.   We are inviting you to view our bridges on Friday, October 30 at 7: 45.  You can also come on Friday from 10:30-11:15.

Reading Workshop- We will focus on using visualization to help us make a picture in our head based on what we read.  Towards the end of the week, we will begin our unit on nonfiction books!

Writing Workshop-  We are going begin writing  a new story using descriptive words!  We will even get to "create" our main character using construction paper!

Science/ Social Studies-  This week we will wrap up our Project Based Learning.  I am excited to see what our "builders" create! 

 

Math-   We will continue our unit on measurement. We will work on measuring with meters next week.  We will also begin our unit on time.  

Class Celebrations:   Christopher lost a tooth and we were able to add his name to our tooth graph!  Elisa  is our Star of the Week!  Way to go Elisa!
