We have been learning about similes-comparisons using "like" or "as". We completed a fun activity today all about ice cream! We decided what ice cream was...
- cold as
- sweet as
- soft as
- frozen as
- tasty as
- smooth as
- creamy as
- colorful as
Some of our favorites were, "As sweet as my mom, "as smooth as a cheek, " and "as tasty as cotton candy."
We took our Unit 10 math test today. This is the last math test of the whole year! We were so excited, we celebrated with an extra recess. It was a perfectfully beautiful day for extra recess.
We are REALLY winding down to the end of the year now. We prepared our June calendar and realized we only have 10 days of school left! 4 of those are Project Inside Out!
Tomorrow is Step-Up day. Your child will be going to meet his/her teacher for second grade. I know everyone is really excited about it!
We reviewed for our Unit 10 math test today. We will have our test tomorrow. This test is pretty challenging and we realized today, what we need to practice the most is filling out number grid puzzles. I know the first graders will do a wonderful job tomorrow!
Today, in your child's backpack, is information about Step-Up today on Friday. Your child's placement for next year is on a green, folded piece of paper. Please make sure you take that out of the folder. There is also a lot of other information starting to come home. Please be diligent about checking folders every night and getting them back to school. Thanks!
We will having a final school-wide PBIS celebration on Friday afternoon as well.
We're back! The pictures speak for themselves. We had an awesome time at the Bird Museum and Audobon Center!
Wow! We have had a very busy end of the week here in Room 3. We celebrated our chicks birthdays and our amazing behavior yesterday with cupcakes made by Ryan F.'s mom (SO CUTE!); we had a touching Memorial Day assembly with Ryan P.'s dad as our keynote speaker (look for a csdspotlight.org post on this soon!); and, sadly, we had to say goodbye to our chicks today. Today's post is a little photo-heavy, but... we think you'll like it!
Have a wonderful holiday weekend, I think I'll see some of you at the marathon on Sunday! (Thankfully, I'm just cheering this year). Please remember that Tuesday is our field trip to the Audobon. Students should be prepared to be outside in whatever the weather is that day... I recommend sneakers and long pants.
