Tornado Time!















To go along with our Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs unit we made tornado's! Each student had a water bottle that was filled with water, vinegar, and soap. While we were making the tornado's we learned about measurement along with how tornado's look.

Play-Doh Economics!























In social studies, we played with Play-Doh! Each student made their very own product that they had to sell at my store. They then had to use their vocabulary words that we had learned from the book to discuss their project. Some of the vocabulary words that we used were: opportunity cost, import, export, , supply,demand, scarcity, income, profit, budget, and employee. Ask your child if they had fun, and see if they can still use their vocabulary words! Learning is fun in our room!





Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs!




While I read the story, Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs, each student had to visualize what they thought the pictures looked like. We then shared our pictures with the class and realized that we all had different ideas. We had some really cool pictures!







In reading, we gathered in groups and read.


First day of school!
