Myths

This week all of our readings were myths.  Each myth had a lesson or message.  In little groups we read Greek myths, some of the students really enjoyed these stories.  We worked on identifying the theme of each story.  We also did a lot of work with adjectives, nouns, and compound words this week.

In math we continued to learn about units of measurement.  We will wrap topic 12 up next week.  Students will take the topic assessment on Wednesday.

Our writing project for the week was really fun.  Each child choose the best part of them to write about.  These are displayed in the hallway upstairs.  Here is a picture, they did a great job!
We continued to learn about service jobs in Social Studies.  Students had fun acting out jobs in a pantomime this week.

The 2nd hydration station was finished being installed this morning!!! Yay!!! We are all so excited to be able to fill up our bottles right outside the classroom.

Remember Thursday, May 11th is our trip to the zoo.  Please pack a bag lunch, not glass bottles!  We will NOT be going to the gift shop!! NO MONEY needed for the trip!  We are so excited to hear the announcement about the UNLESS project!!!

Have a wonderful weekend!
