Biography Summaries

We began our biography study this week! We read Helen Keller yesterday, and today we are writing summaries using some questions about the characteristics of biographies. 

Fire Safety

We went to our annual fire safety prevention program today! We learned how to stay safe in case of a fire. The fireman left us with some prizes that we will be bringing home today. We bundled up and braved the cold weather to check out the fire trucks. 

Two Digit Subtraction

Last week, we began learning to subtract a two digit number minus a one digit number. This week we will move into subtracting 2 two digit numbers. Here is a chart we made today showing how we model subtracting a two digit minus a one digit number with base ten blocks and the stacking method. 

Please notice that you only represent the first number in the subtraction problem with this method. 

Sign Language

We had a special visitor today! Mrs. Enloe is the 3K teacher at our school and she knows sign language! When she heard that we would be learning about Helen Keller in our biography unit, she was eager to come teach us about sign language so that we would have a better understanding of how Helen Keller communicated. 

Sharing our Projects

We had a great chance to practice our speaking and listening skills today while everyone shared their habitat projects! Today was so great because we learned so much from one another! Miss Parris learned all sorts of things too! My proudest moments in the classroom are when my students are teaching me ; )! 

Mom Son Movie Night!

We had an incredible time with our moms last night! Thank you for coming out to spend time with us. We love you!!! 

Habitat Projects

I am so proud of everyone's hard work on their habitat projects. They are incredible!
