February is I Love to Read Month! Every day this past week an all school D.E.A.R. (Drop Everything & Read) time happened at some point throughout the day.
This week we began a two week unit on community. On Monday we read the book Me on the Map by Joan Sweeney and discussed our global location in the world.
On Tuesday students practiced writing their own addresses and then drew maps of their bedrooms.
On Wednesday we discussed that communities are places where people work, play, and live together. We also learned about different types of communities including: urban communities, suburban communities, and rural communities.
We ended the week with students working in small groups to plan and create their own communities.
