We practiced counting faces, edges, and vertices of 3D shapes and sorted shaped based on their attributes. We even went outside and searched for 3D shapes hiding in our world. We found lots of cylinders at the playground! Science/Literacy:  In writing, we have started a class research project on Black bears in order to get ready for our upcoming field trip to the zoo!

On Wednesday we went on a shape hunt in the library and on Thursday we even got to go on a shape hunt outside. We found so many different shapes hiding in the world around us. We can't wait to start learning about 3D shapes next week.  Writing:  In writing this week we have been continuing to focus on creating our best writing and fixing our mistakes. We are getting so good are using the sound/word wall to help us spell common words correctly and are getting way better at using all lowercases in our writing.  Science:  In science this week we started learning about plant life cycles and what they need to survive.

   Our Learning Math:  In math this week we started revisiting patterns!

We practiced identifying the core of patterns and then labeled them with letters.  Writing: In Writing this week we started to focus on improving the quality of our writing, by making sure we are using tools like personal dictionaries and word walls. We are also learned how to go back and edit our work to fix mistakes with the help of a teacher. We are learning and writing about different types of flowers. This week we wrote about sunflowers and prairie crocuses.  Science:  In science this week we started to learn about the parts of different plants. We drew a picture of a flower and labeled it's parts. On Tuesday we learned about the parts of a tree. First we recreated the layers and parts of a tree with outrselves. We each got assigned a job such...
