Writing: In writing we worked on two projects to finish up our research unit. We made habitats and models of our animals. We also went to the tech center to create a slide for a slideshow that will be part of our celebration next Friday.
Math: Our new math unit is on measurement. We have used rulers and yard sticks to measure. We are working to measure the height, length, and width of objects. We even worked on measuring outside on the playground!
Second Step: In Second Step we talked about how to deal with consequences appropriately. We talked about how consequences are the effect of an action- sometimes consequences are good or sometimes they can be bad.
Here are some photos of the class enjoying snack outside!
Conversation Starters:
What does it mean to make a reasonable estimate when you are measuring?
Did you like working with your 5th grade buddy? What did you learn from your buddy? What do you have in common with your buddy?
