Kindergarten: We finished up our "cookie jar" name game and we have gotten to know all of our friends' names in class! We wrote our first journal entry and shared our favorite kind of cookie with each other in class. We also made a graph of our favorite cookies and counted up to find out that chocolate chip is the most favorite cookie :) We are now moving on to our unit on shapes this week.
First Grade: We got to know each other by playing the "Cookie Jar" game. We practiced writing sentences in our journals to explain to others in our class what our favorite kind of cookie is. We are now talking about weather and the different types of weather that we see in each of the four seasons.
Second Grade: Last week and yesterday we worked on map skills and identifying what can be found on different kinds of maps. We have been working in partners to talk about how we can use different maps. This week, all of second grade will be taking the Cognitive Abilities Test on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
Third Grade: We have been finishing up our unit on identifying people in the community, their jobs, and what different things we can see in a community. The big idea that we have been talking about is that "Communities are made up of people and places". We designed our own community books as well as created our own communities.
Fourth Grade: We have been working on map skills in fourth grade. We have identified characteristics of different kinds of maps by thinking in smaller groups/ pairs and then sharing with the whole group. We will be creating maps of the school this week and providing directions to each other to see if we can find our way around the school using each others' maps!
Fifth Grade: We are working on making inferences by text that we are provided. We are practicing identifying something based on different clues that are provided to us. This week, the whole fifth grade is also taking the Cognitive Abilities Test on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
