We have been studying 3-D shapes and the girls are getting more comfortable identifying the different characteristics of each shape. Here they are learning about the cone.
In science, we finished up our experiment on different roots. Yesterday the girls went outside and had to pull up scallions and grass from the ground to compare the roots to those of the beet and the carrot. The girls had a great time learning why roots are all different.
The girls spent our language arts block working on capitalization. We have an anchor chart which has the acronym MINTS to help the girls remember what words get capitalized. After we completed a whole class activity, the girls worked in pairs to read through a short essay on the Orioles, then go back and find all of the words that needed to be capitalized.
The girls have been hard at work, researching their rain forest animals and preparing a presentation using the Pixie app for you to see during our rain forest celebration. Here is a sneak preview!
