Leaf Silhouettes!

 Greetings! Happy Friday! It is hard to believe that we already have four weeks of school in. Time is surely flying by. 

In Religion class today we talked about the Blessed Trinity. We learned that there are Three Persons in the Blessed Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and that they are joined together by love. 

Language Arts was again busy today. We used our oral vocabulary words in sentences. We then used our whiteboards to spell and read short i words and words with final double consonant letters. Next, we wrote sentences using our sight words. Following that, we read a story in our decodable reader booklets and partner read (social distance style) our story from yesterday. Then we read a nonfiction piece about life in the city and country and completed pages in our close reading companion. Finally, we took our weekly assessment and practiced writing sentences using correct word order. 

In Math class today, we practiced solving number bonds when given the whole and one part. We are slowly understanding how to find the other part. 

In Science class today, we talked about how animals move. Each student was given an animal and asked to show how that animal moved. We then sorted animals based on how they moved. 

Finally, it was time for Art. Today we made a leaf silhouette. The students glued strips on scrapbook paper onto a piece of construction paper. When finished, they glued a leaf cut out on top to create the silhouette. Here are some finished artworks: 

Have a great weekend!
