Elections!

We started our election unit by reading a book called "If I Were President". The kids did a poster of themselves and then wrote what they would do if they were president. They had some great ideas! :)

Room on the Broom Character Traits

We read a book called "Room on the Broom" and talked about the characters, setting, problem, and solution in the story. We also did a Venn Diagram to compare the traits of the two main characters. They came up with some great words to describe the characters! We did a craft to go along with the learning and each student picked 3 words for each character to put on their craft. 

Science Experiment

We have done a couple of science experiments this month.  We used soda and pop rocks to learn how gas expands a balloon and we made rootbeer floats. They discovered that a rootbeer float has all 3 states of matter! 

Halloween Jokes!

 Every year I print a little Halloween joke book for the kids to read. They love telling jokes so they had a blast reading them with a buddy! 

Playing Math Games

We like to play math games.  It's a good way to learn math facts and how to cooperate with other students. :) Plus using goldfish to mark the spots and to snack on, is a good time!
