The End of the Heat?

Greetings! Happy Friday! It was yet another hot day for learning, but we pushed through and had a fun, busy day. 

We began our day by attending a prayer service. We then returned to the classroom and reviewed all that God created. The students drew three things God created. All of their drawings were wonderful! 

Today was a review day in Language Arts. We reviewed short a and inflected ending -s words. To review these phonics skills, students added short a words to a sack and then decorated the sack. Next, we reviewed our sight words; the students wrote sentences using them. The sentences were amazing! We took a break from reviewing to do some reading. We read a short nonfiction piece and answered questions by finding the evidence in the text. Then it was back to reviewing. We reviewed how to write sentences and practiced writing sentences. 

In Math class today, we learned the four steps in solving a problem. They are understand, plan, solve, and check. Knowing the steps, we put them into action by solving a word problem by using logical reasoning. 

During Science class today, we talked about the different coverings animals can have. We then sorted animals based on their coverings. 

After all that hard work, it was time to unwind with Art class. Today we made owls. We used celery sticks to stamp "feathers" onto the bodies of the owls. They look amazing. I will post pictures next week once the artwork has dried. 

Have a wonderful weekend!
