Fun and Exciting Week

We have learned so many new things this week. We started off our week by discussing the different purposes for maps and how some maps can be used for different things. The discussion led us to the differences between land and water on a globe or map. We made these fun maps ourselves and then wrote about the difference between land and water.

After this discussion we learned about other different forms of water that can be found on our planet like lakes, rivers, and oceans. We had so much fun acting out the difference between a lake and a river.

In Science, we had fun learning about the different states of matter. First we acted them out.

After acting them out we completed a tri-fold where the students had to model the different states of matter. 

In Math we dove into addition and role played using whiteboards and number cubes the proper way to write a number sentence. Those pictures are to come!

Tomorrow the class is excited because they are going to start friendly letter writing and a mailbox will be placed in the writing work station with different types of stationary. Again I will take these pictures once they have been introduced. 

As you can see we DO have a very active classroom!
