Busy! Busy! Busy!

Even though the end of the school year is approaching there is still a LOT going on room 26!

Writing
We have been working hard on publishing our last opinion piece of the year.  The kiddos are making a book and also a google slides presentation of this piece.  We cannot wait to show off all of our incredible writing at Opinion & Oreos on Tuesday!!!

Reading
We have been working incredibly hard on reading and understanding poetry.  On Tuesday and today the kiddos made Simile Monsters.  They wrote similes to describe their monster and then drew a monster to match their description.  These will be hanging in our hallway - so make sure to check them out when you come for Opinions & Oreos! :)

Science
We have been learning about ecosystems, plants and food chains.  We started making plant posters to show off all of knowledge and these got finished up today! :)  These will also be hanging in the hallway.

Math
Your child is bringing home their measurement pre & post today.  We had also talked more about equivalency of 12 inches in a foot and 36 inches in a yard (there was some confusion).  I gave the kiddos a similar question that was on the test today and they did great with this question.  This is also stapled to the front - so in case your child missed that problem you can see where their thinking is now.  Please sign this test & send it back in with your child.  I will then give it back to your kiddo to bring back home because of the limited time that we have left together. :(

I hope that you have wonderful night!! :)
