This week we had another five day week so we got to celebrate President's Day at school! We first learned what/who a President is. We used our new word chart to help us remember our new word: President. They each had to draw themselves as a President.
We learned who/what a President is and what they do to help us. We also learned about George Washington and Abe Lincoln. Here is our George Washington writing activity and craft. They had to think of two things that they learned about George Washington.
We had a special show and tell this week. Someone brought some baby lambs! I have been teaching for five years and this was a first for me! We usually get dogs, cats, bunnies and baby calves brought in, but I have never had a baby lamb brought in. They are so cute! Thanks again for bringing them in!
We read two stories about; The Three Little Pigs. We compared the two stories and then voted on which one we liked the best.
Our Abe Lincoln crafts. We learned that Abe placed important papers and items in his hat. They each got to think of some things they would like to put in their hats! Some of them got quite creative and wanted some snacks in theirs (which consisted of some pickles, hot dogs and cupcakes).
This week we started a new chapter in Math. We are currently learning about coins. Before we got introduced to the different types of coins, we first learned the heads and tails side of coins. We did a heads or tails flipping activity. They had to color in a box each time they got a heads or tails.
Here is our chart that helped us learn about what a penny is.
In Science we focused on heavy/light as well as sink/float. We weighed our heavy and light items on scales in the classroom and then used those same items for our sink/float experiment. Some of them learned that their heavy item floated while their light item sank.
