Our Week Last Week...

This week students learned about inferences.  They learned that we can infer when take what we know and what see in a book to come up with an idea.  We started our inference mini-unit by reading the book Yo!Yes! and inferred how the characters were feeling.
 
 
Students also practiced their inferring skills by reading the book Monster Pet with a partner.
 


 
All week long we learned about healthy eating.  Students had a chance to work with their table groups to sort foods into the correct food group.
 
 
On Thursday we continued learning about eating healthy using MyPlate.  Students spent the afternoon creating their own MyPlate projects.  First, students put together their plates and then added three foods to each section.


If students needed an idea for their project they could look in one of our food group books.

 
Below you will find a link to a very fun MyPlate game that your child can play at home:


There are also some other great resources on the MyPlate website:


 
 
At the beginning of the week we enjoyed what was left of the beautiful weather before it snowed on Friday!
 




 
On Friday we had the opportunity to attend an assembly to watch Leo & Kathy Lara perform.  It was awesome!!
 

 
This week in library students learned about the difference between fiction and non-fiction and read a book about snakes.  Later in the week one of the library teachers brought in a huge snake skin to show our class.
