I did post lots of pictures on this blog from Field Day.
Remember Book Talks are due on Wednesday.
Book Orders are due on Thursday, last one of the year.
In religion we discussed Jesus as the Good Shepherd. This went along with Good Shepherd Sunday.
In reading we worked on using what we know and what we learn to make a judgment. We are also reviewing hard C and soft C, along with "r" controlled vowels with "ar". Students are working in center about art, making art, and what senses you use when feeling art.
Tomorrow we will listen to some Book Talks. We had library today so there was no time for Book Talks.
In math we learned about cups, pints, quarts, and gallons. This went perfectly with Mr. Gallon that students worked on last week.
Thank you for all the flowers and butterflies in the potted flowers. Thank you, Mrs. Celestine for lunch. Delicious! Teacher Appreciation Week is so fun!

In social studies students watched an educational video on economics. It showed what saving money is, spending money is, producers, consumers, goods and services. They are pretty good at defining these terms.
FYI- Casino Night is cancelled.
