Ee is for Elmer Elephant!

This week we introduced the short sound of Ee, as in elephant. We are also learning to identify the difference between fiction and non-fiction text.  We used these two skills to have a little fun with Ee.  In the picture you can see the fiction and non-fiction books we read and the pictures we made!
Enjoy!

Bubble! Bubble!

We have been learning about how scientists use their five senses to learn and explore the world around them.  This has really gotten us excited about science.
On Friday, we used the assistance of our buddies to conduct an experiment to help us answer the question, "Are bubbles always round?"  Click on the link and enjoy the photos!

We Are Scientists!

This week we are learning all about what science is and what scientists do. We have learned that scientists ask questions, observe, record data, and make predictions. With the help of our 5th grade buddies, we predicted how many drops of water we could put on a penny. Then we observed and recorded the results.
