Red Ribbon Week Days 3-5, pumpkins, more place value, and Chick-Fil A

Red Ribbon Week Days 3-5

Wednesday was hat day!

 

Thursday was neon day and Chick Fil A spirit night!

Friday was silly sock day!

 

 

All week we read books and wrote about pumpkins. We made a pumpkin glyph and pumpkin mystery word activity. We also worked on retelling stories. We read Big Pumpkin, Room on Broom and Winnie the Witch to practice retelling. We talked about the "five finger retell" and had a special guest (Winnie) who came and read to us then did a retell on a witches hat.

 

We also continued working on place value. We made a cute candy corn craft that included standard notation, written form, pictorial model, and expanded notation. We also used abaya.com in the computer lab to practice place value.

 

 

Mrs. Hay also had the opportunity to attend a student's cheerleading game on Saturday morning! GOOOO UPWARD!!!!

 

Sports, Science, October Birthday and SPIDERS!

Mrs Hay attended two soccer games last weekend! Goooo Rockets and Giants!!!

We made Popsicles this week in our freezing and melting science lesson this week.

Team Sport Jersey/T-Shirt Day

 

 

Mrs. Hay was able to cheer on some friends from our classroom over the past two weekends. I enjoyed watching the Cheetah Girls (soccer) and Vikings (football). Again, if your child plays a sport, has a dance recital coming up, cheerleading competition or karate tournament please let me know and I would love to come watch/cheer them on!
