Animal Research!

Today started with poetry challenge. Right now our class is working hard to get 5 "punches" on their cards so that we can earn our poetry buttons.  Library was a bit short today because we were so focused on our poetry challenge.  For the last 10 minutes of library we were allowed to play with Mrs. Kidd's farm.

The rest of the morning was business as usual. First we did family writing, then wordwork, and then math centers.

This afternoon we did our animal research. A few of us made our way through the whole animal list and have chosen the animal that we want to study. The rest of us will need one more day to search and make our decision. Ask me if I have made a decision, or what animals are on my short list so far. 

After that we had gymnastics. Today we used some activity cards and we got to try to perform the moves that were on the cards. Some of the moves were solo moves and some were partner moves. At first, we raised our hands to show Ms. Boyer our move and then Ms. Boyer gave us a new card. Once Ms. Boyer was sure we had the hang of it, we got to go pick our own cards whenever we were ready.

Tomorrow our helper is: Jasper
