Top Chefs had a great time listening to the story, "Not A Stick". Students then created their own books using their imagination to come up with words and illustrations. Students then shared their books with the class. More fun books like this are on the way :).
Top Chefs also heard the story, "What Mary Jo Shared". Students listened and then partnered up using the Think-Pair -Share strategy to discuss and talk about what they heard and noticed in the story. Ask your child if they ever felt like Mary Jo in the story. We will write about our experiences next week as a follow up activity to our Making Meaning texts.
States Of Matter is all around us! We have been learning all about the 3 states of matter, and sharing our wonderful projects. These projects are due on Monday :). Top Chefs are excited to participate in more experiments. Making bread and homemade butter is taking place next week! :)
Top Chefs are moving along in ST Math! We have 7 new computers in our room, which allow for more choice and comfort. We get 90 min. of ST Math a week, plus what many of you are doing at home. Awesome!
Math Investigations is also used daily in morning work and at math time. Students are working hard solving problems and showing their work. There is more than ONE way to solve a problem!
Learn To Learn Lego's is another Top Chef Favorite! Today's challenge was to invent a machine to help solve a problem. Ask your Top Chef what they created.
*** Fall and Halloween is in the air! Top Chefs are looking forward to celebrating in our classroom. I will be creating a Sign-Up email for families to bring in yummy treats to help us celebrate Fall. *** Costumes should be geared toward book characters. Please No weapons of any kind. More information to come soon ;)
