This week in Literacy:  This week in literacy we have been learning about various character traits. We've been looking at Elephant and Piggy books, and describing both the Elephant and Piggy and what makes them unique as characters and how we would describe them when looking at outside and inside traits.  This week in Inquiry:  We also got to watch Bill Nye the science guy talk about heat and hot and cold temperatures. We learned three ways that heat transfers its energy: conduction, convection and radiation.  We have also been working with Robots this past week and this week. This week since we felt more comfortable with the Robots we were given a challenge! With a partner we created one repeating pattern with our robot and a gro wing pattern. This was really tough but we were able to do it!  Ask me about my pattern, and what kind was my favorite to make.  Double Digit Subtraction This week we were challenged to answer a multi-step word problem. We were encouraged

Thank you :)  I just wanted to post a big thank you for all the wonderful e mails that I have received. It is not easy to go, but I feel very loved and appreciated and I couldn't ask for more. They say that you never forget your first class, and I can attest to that. I have been so lucky to work with your children, they have brought so much happiness, laughter and rich learning to each day. I do hope that if you ever would like to, feel free to reach out to let me know new experiences or accomplishments your child has went through throughout the years. I would always love to hear about them. I feel so lucky and thankful to have had your child be part of my class, it has been such an amazing year. Thank you for all the support, and I wish you all the best end to this school year, as well as a great summer.  This week in Literacy:  This week in literacy we have been focusing on thick and thin questions.

Literacy QUESTIONING For the next few weeks we will be learning about asking and identifying  thick and thin questions while we read.  There are two types of questions, thick or thin. Thin questions are usually easier to answer, and don't require a lot of critical  thinking.  Thick questions are usually difficult to answer, as they usually have more than one answer, and require us to think deeper about our answer and use our schema to answer our questions.  Melting and Freezing  This week we have been focusing on WHAT is HEAT and WHAT is TEMPERATURE.  Interactive Thermometer: https://www.mathsisfun.com/measure/thermometer.html We have been talking about melting and freezing which relates to the states of matter and their molecules.  In math we have been adding past 100 and seeing what happens when we have ten 10's! We have been totaling inventory for our T-Shirt Factories so that when orders start coming into our store and we start selling our T-s
