States of Matter

Student teacher, Mrs. Little, led students in a science

experiment with "oobleck".  Students mixed water and

cornstarch until it reached the correct consistency. 

They couldn't decide if it was solid or liquid or both!

Parts of a Non-fiction Book

We've been studying parts of a non-ficton book.

They include....table of contents, title page, glossary,

and index.

Science

Mrs. Simpson and Mrs. Little taught "types" of

clouds and the kiddos did a great visual to help

them remember each.

Adjective Frames

As an adjective review, we did "adjective frames."

I took pics of the kiddos.  The kiddos added

3/4 adjectives describing themselves.  Then,

they took it home and their families added a few

more.  Finally, I added two more adjectives.

They look great hanging outside our doors!

Chinese Culture

Thanks soooo much to Mrs. Gretchen Turner who

came to speak to our class and share about Chinese

culture.  She did a great job and the kids loved it.

We discussed population, geography, food, language,

and of course art and music.  The kiddos tried chopsticks,

a scarf game, and a few Chinese snacks.
