Ms. Collodora's News
Here's what's hip-hop and happening in our room! Week 36
Spelling
This week we practiced sm and sw beginning blends.
Reading and Writing
We learned about so many different habitats this week and what animals could live in those habitats. Each day we had a new habitat to learn about. We made a circle map each day and by the end of the day it was FULL! We read some stories and watched a BrainPop Jr. Video about each habitat and we took notes about what we had learned.
We learned about the rainforest, desert, arctic and ocean habitats!
We also learned about onomatopoeias this week. WOW did we have a noisy classroom :) The kids really grasped onto this concept but it took them a little while to realize they are not just animal sounds. CREEEEEAAAKK of a squeaky door, SPLASH into the pool and HONK for the horn of a car and so on. Once they realized what an onomatopoeia was, they pointed them out all over the place!
Math
Graphs and more graphs! This week we started our graphing unit in Math. We have learned about so many graphs including how to make a graph, pictographs, and bar graphs! We also talked about grids and how to use and read them! We will continue this topic through next week, and we will look at other data and probability!
Engineering
