At the end of last week we read the book Agate by Joy Morgan Dey. Throughout the story Agate compares himself to his friends without realizing how special he is. In the end Agate's friends help him to see that he is unique and special too! The last line in the book reads:
"Be glad they're them and you are you -- each a gem in life's marvelous zoo!"
After reading the book we spent a little time discussing how special each one of us are -- and then painted self-portraits with watercolors -- just like in the book!
The self portraits turned out GREAT!!
In library, on Tuesday students had a chance with our librian Ms. Zbacnik to do some basic computer coding. Information came home in yesterday's Wednesday folder about how to do some more coding at home! I've included a link below for a video all about coding from BrainPop. You can also read more about coding at Brimhall on Ms. Zbacnik's blog using the link below:
This week we've been learning all about polar animals. We started the week by researching animals that live in the North Pole (Arctic) and South Pole (Antarctic). Here are students sorting animals that live in each area.
