Pictures are of students kid writing, guided reading, gym, working on the numbers 0-10 during math, centers, learning about Native Americans.

We are learning about how Native Americans communicated and where they lived so far.  We learned they used symbols not words for stories.   We will finish learning about them and move onto pilgrims later in the week.  We also graphed about how many of us like to eat turkey and how many of us do not.

50th Day

What's Cooking

Math: Numbers 0-20
Science: Thanksgiving

We danced to 50's music.  We learned how the 50's were different than 2013 (what cars looked like, what a record is, what dolls looked like, how they played music, what restaurants looked like etc).
We made records and practiced writing by 10's to 50.  We made root beer floats and learned how to write a how to writing on how to make a root beer float.

We also had made cards for the last 2 weeks for veterans as well as a coloring page.  I delivered them on Friday to the veterans at the Hollidaysburg Veterans Home.

Guided reading activities,  dancing away drugs in the hall for red ribbon week, centers, Halloween, alphabet exchange.

Alphabet Exchange
We receive a letter from the alphabet from different schools around the country.  We made the letter S which we made into a snake (26 of them) and sent them to the different schools in our group we were assigned.  A letter comes with each alphabet letter so we can learn more about that state, local attractions, and how our school is alike and different from theirs.   We find it on the map on the smartboard and compare it to where we live.  We read their letter and then we figure out where the letter belongs in the hall and put a sticker on that map to represent where each of the letters came from.   We are still awaiting on a few letters to arrive.

Halloween

hank you to the volunteers who came in to help students change into their costumes and to watch students while they watched the movie while we transformed into old ladies!
