This morning we started with journals. We are still working on using our hamburger paragraph model and our 5 W's to add more details to our writing. The grade 1's needed to make at least 1 hamburger. Grade 2's needed to make at least 2 hamburgers.
Today in math we worked on our Treasure Chest math. We didn't read box #5 yet because no one was ready for it yet. Everyone is finished box #1, a few people are on box #2, lots of people are on box #3, and quite a few are on box #4. During our work time today Jasper finished box #4 and got to take a sneak peek at box #5!
This afternoon we worked on floating and sinking again. We started by trying to remember the things that floated and sank in our test last week and we made a class chart. Then, we went in groups of 3 to try to develop a theory about why things sink or float. We are writing our ideas on chart papers so that we will be able to share our theories with the class. We are using the sentence starters: "A thing will float if..." and "A thing will sink if...". to write down our theories.
Please remember that tomorrow is treat day.
Our helper tomorrow is: Bilal
