Shaving cream spelling!

First we played in the shaving cream and then we practiced a HUGE list of sight words by writing them correctly in the cream. It really helped our brains to be touching and moving while learning!

100th day of school!

The 100th day of school is Mrs. Brown's favorite day of the year. We spent the entire day celebrating all of the learning and growth we have made in the last 100 days!  We wrote stories about what we would do with 100 dollars, we made pictures of ourselves at 100 years old, we practiced counting to 100 by grouping numbers by 10's while we made posters and necklaces. Wow!  We are certainly experts on the number 100 now!

Winter party

 

We celebrated by having a craft party together! We "sewed" paper stockings, we marble painted, and we even made traps to catch our gingerbread people!  We had a blast!

Community snack

Each piece of our snack symbolized an important aspect of our class as a community!  It sure was tasty!

So thankful for little turkeys!

We went on a trip all the way to Australia!  We went exploring with binoculars and snorkeling for sight word fish in the Great Barrier Reef.  All in all it was a wonderful trip down under!

These are pictures from our Publishing Party!  We each shared our best story from our small moments unit.  We were proud of all of the things we have learned how to do as writers and this was our chance to show off our progress and growth!!
