Happy Friday!

Today was a great day to finish up a fantastic week in school. We wrapped up our story Mister Bones by reviewing the skills we learned during the week as well as taking our test on the story. As a special treat, we made our own fossils. Students were given a piece of clay. After flattening it, they each pressed a seashell into it. They will bring them home on Monday after I bake the clay so that it will be hard. Hopefully these little fossils will become a treasure for them. 

In Math, we learned how to count nickels which came as no problems since we have been counting by 5's everyday in our Math Meeting. 

We wrapped up our unit of health and nutrition by studying the my plate. We talked about different foods in each food group. Students were then given food pictures and had to place them in the correct section of the plate. Here is a picture of our plate when we were all finished. 

To end the week, we created our very own leprechauns in honor of St. Patrick's day. They turned out adorable. 

I hope everyone has a great and relaxing weekend.
