Pretzel Practice and a new bulletin board

Dear Team 24 families,

In Theme Studies, we have begun to look at objects in motion.  We went on a scavenger hunt through the school and recorded items that would: turn, roll, slide, bounce, spin, etc. We also captured pictures of these objects and used Book Creator to create non-fiction pages that are now posters on our Theme Studies bulletin board.

Here are a few close-ups. Remember to click on the pictures to enlarge them.

Wednesdays are Writing Job Wednesdays in our Word Study program. Students have a tic-tact-toe card they use to select a fun writing activity each week. After 3 weeks, if students have scored a line on their card, they get a "prize". Today, we changed it up! Students were given a pile of alphabet pretzels to build their spelling words. They then recorded those words as triangles in their notebook. For example:

T

TH

THI

THIN

THINK

PICTURES OF THE FUN!
