Week of November 7th

It is so nice to be back at school!

What is going on in room 24???

Math - We will be exploring 3 D shapes and patterns

Concepts - left and right narrow and wide

Writer's Workshop - We just started a unit on writing small moments. These are little snapshots of things that happen in our lives. We started this unit by reading Donald Crews' books Big Mama's and Shortcuts. Shortcuts is a small moment in Donal Crews' life. The children began writing their own small moments today and did a wonderful job. I was very impressed!

Science - temperature
