Today our class had P.E., health, and a "shelter-in-place" drill. Our class did a terrific job in the drill. In science we have been learning about energy, recycling, and taking care of the earth. Yesterday we learned that energy can be heat, light, sound, fuel, motion, or electricity. We've been talking about ways to use less energy and what we can do to help the world. To connect this with learning how to write our opinions in Writing Workshop, next week we'll write letters persuading others to take care of the earth.
In math, we're learning how to create and understand graphs. Children each came up with a topic to survey the class and made a graph to show the results. On Monday we'll make graphs using the
Kids' Zone website. I'm hoping to be able to post them on our blog when we finish them!
Thank you for the wonderful items for our Spring Raffle Basket. If you'd like to contribute to this PTO fundraiser, our classroom's basket theme is Beach Party and items should be in by Monday! This raffle will be held at the Spring Concert this Thursday. Please have your child arrive around 6:15 pm for the concert. Children will wait in classrooms before and after the show. Looking forward to seeing you there!
