Apples and landforms!

We continued learning all about apples during our study of Johnny Appleseed this week.  We read a story called a house with no windows, no doors, and a star.  In the end the house is the apple!  We also discussed the parts of the apple and what is our favorite type of apple 😋.  We them got to taste a slice of green apple!

We got to work on our 3D models of our favorite landform using model magic.  The loved picking their favorite and making it 😀.  

Visiting Mrs. Osias's class to see their rock museum!

Finding 901 rocks is awesome!

A few weeks ago we were invited to Mrs. Osias's class to see their rock museum!  We LOVED learning all about the different types of rocks and seeing them!!!

Writers Workshop...

Last Thursday we worked hard on our first morning long Writers Workshop!  We made bubble maps, rough drafts, and a final illustrated copy.  While it was hard work everyone had fun and did a great job.  They are all becoming wonderful writers :).

 

GO Jim GO!!!

We had a great time getting ready for and then cheering Jim Jaggers and his Go Jim Go crew today.  They were very kind and thanked us for all of our pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, and dollars!  It was a very exciting and fun afternoon at Campus School!

 

We first practiced using pom poms safely in the classroom before heading out with the rest of the school!

 

 

 

Then all the outdoor dancing and cheering began :)

Clearly the funniest book ever is "The Book With No Pictures" by B.J. Novak!!!

 

 

We've really got in a great Daily 5 routine during our Language Arts block!  They are doing better and better self regulating themselves while working, being productive, and working together with each other.  Each day there are different literacy based activities they can pick from.  They typically get to go to 2 or 3 different activities unless they are on a computer that day.  They look forward to this time each day and are always eager to pick their activity.  There are various levels for each activity which enables everyone to be successful and be challenged no matter which activity they pick.
