We read “Turkey Trouble” and disguised turkeys to save them from Thanksgiving dinner. We aren’t turkeys, we are cheetahs, ninjas, knights, unicorns, surfers, cool guys, taxi drivers, pizza delivery men, sheep, Superman, police, sharks, aliens, and pigs.

We are estimating and building two-digit numbers! Someone in 1-D was spot on with his estimate!

We are so excited to be back together at one class! We learned the routines for making math choices today!

Happy 100th Day! If we had $100, we’d buy PS5s, houses, LOL dolls, cars that could fly, 4 dogs, stuffed unicorns and more. Ask your first grader what they’d buy with 100 dollars!

One hundred year old portraits!

Building with 100 cups!

We are learning how sounds are caused by VIBRATIONS... what an interesting vocabulary word to ask your first grader about!

Today we talked about high and low pitch!

We are observing crickets today... how do you think crickets are related to sound? Hmmm...

We are practicing subtracting multiples of 10!

We took a “listening walk” as part of our sound unit yesterday!

Just a little Friday reading circle! ❤️📚

We learned that long ago, human beings used drums to communicate. We made up our own drum code and tried to follow Ms. Dodge’s messages.

We are starting to learn about the geography of Mexico! 🇲🇽

1D is finishing up their “Inspiring Leaders” unit. We drew self portraits and thought about the things we want to inspire others to do or believe. #spreadpeace #thinkgreeneveryone #unitedwestanddividedwefall #followyourheart #bekindbeyou are just a few of our inspiring words!

1D decorated our door to celebrate the amazing accomplishments of Dr. Mae Jemison! Inspiration from “Mae Among the Stars”! #kidart #inspiringleaders

Marching into the BUGZ play... here come the army ants 🐜 🐜 🐜

More Army Ants practice today!

We are sharing our “name stories” in 1D, an important part of our IDENTITY. This student likes how the initials of his first and middle name sound together!

So proud of these 1D army ants! They ROCKED their taping day for the BUGZ play 🐜 🦋 🐝 🪰
