It's time for Read Across America! We will be practicing a choral reading of Green Eggs and Ham. We will read it to other classes as we celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday. Mrs. Saxton will help us make actual green eggs and ham (yum!) on Tuesday.
I hope you saw the castle project information, which is due on March 11. We have been enjoying fairy tales and learning about the importance of castles, so we thought it would be fun to make our own! This is also a good opportunity to reinforce geometry concepts.
We will be finishing our geometry unit in math this week. We have had a great time exploring shapes, 3D objects, and symmetry. The students added many new words to their vocabularies.
In Writing Workshop we will be focusing on punctuation. I am continually amazed at the quality of writing this class is producing. It's so exciting!
Don't forget to send back the signed progress report. Also, keep in mind our class Tricky Tray basket. Our theme is "Fun and Games". I know the students will have lots of good ideas for items to add to our basket.
