What we learned this week:
Reading: We read the book “Forces”. We discussed how pushes and pulls are different forces and that everything that moves is caused by some type of force. We also talked about how gravity keeps us on the ground.
Math: We learned about the differences between 2D and 3D shapes. We practiced identifying and drawing circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and hexagons.
Writing: We continued our animal research unit and the class voted to research pythons. We created a bubble map and looked at Pebble Go to find information about pythons. We learned about the python's body, habitat, what they eat, and fun facts.
High Frequency Words: This week we learned the words “funny”, “put”, “want” and “saw”. Words we have learned so far: I, a, am, the, like, eat, in, it, did, into, and, we, see, go, no, so, has, as, is, his, does, box, on, was, man, am, at, that, hand, ran, friend, they, he, little, play, men, red, help, end, yes, went, get, way, away, say, day, run, up, under, must, and, you, there, big, with, very, our, out, all, good, no, for, jump, one, girl, are, here, your, have, said, two, love, when, look, me, come, here, away, yellow, blue, to, what, happy, of, funny, put, want, saw.
