This week we learned all about eating healthy using MyPlate. We began the week by learning about the needs of living things. Then on Tuesday we talked about the importance of eating healthy foods. Students used grocery store adds to sort healthy (anytime) from not so healthy (sometimes) foods.
On Wednesday we began learning about MyPlate and the five main food groups including: dairy, fruit, vegetables, protein, and grains. Students sorted foods with their table groups.
On Thursday students worked very hard to create their very own MyPlate projects. We ended the week by learning about the digestive system and how our body uses the healthy foods we eat.
In literacy this week we learned all about making inferences. Students learned that inferencing is taking what they know and using the clues they see when reading to come up with an idea.
As a class we read the book The Monster Pet and practiced making inferences. Then students had the chance to read the book again on their own with partner.
The most exciting part of week was getting to do our reading group rotations and centers for the first time. Starting next week we will have weekly guided reading groups. Each day students will work with me in the front on reading skills.
Do seat work at their tables.
And go to one of eight centers including: phonics, reading, writing, math, unit, art, listening, and iPad.
We took advantage of this week's nice fall weather and enjoyed a little bit of extra recess at the end of each day!
