Factor and Array Game

Today we played a math game where you choose an array card. You can only pick up an array card if you know the dimensions. If you get it right you write it down in the "facts I know pile." If you got it wrong you write it down in the "facts I don't know" pile.

Mystery Bags

This week we've been leaning about the five senses in science. We were brainstorming about property words and how to describe objects. Today Mrs.Olson put objects in a bag and our job was to describe what we felt. Then, we had to guess what the object was. After that we took the object out of the bag to see if our prediction was right.

Learning to Classify

Each week we will be introducing new vocabulary words for the students to study. This week we worked on classifying words into groups. We began our activity by trying to classify Lego's before we began our word classifying.

Don't Judge a Person by Their Shoes!

Today we read a book called, Chrysanthemum written by, Kevin Henkes. We discussed how each person is special in their own way. Nobody should be judged by the way they look or by their name. As a fun activity, we put all of our shoes in a pile and randomly tried other pairs of shoes on. After discussing the charater traits for the the different characters in the story, we learned what the saying, never  judge a person until you have walked a mile in their shoes.
