Science Time

In science, we are learning all about plants. Today we used hand lenses to observe and compare radishes and grass. Be the first person to tell me what you observed and you will earn a prize!

Just Right Books!

Before we picked our books for our book report, I did a lesson on finding "Just Right Books". I compared a "just right" book to a shirt that fits perfectly. I then demonstrated an over sized shirt and a shirt that is too small and how they are not very comfortable to wear. I used that idea as an analogy for books that are easy or too challenging. The kids thought it was so cool when I hung the Colts jersey up on the board. It was fun for me as a teacher to see their excitement in their eyes! They were ready to learn and all set to pick their books. Don't forget to ask them how they are doing on their report.
