Week #5

Wow! This week flew by because it was packed with so much learning! Here's a peek into our 5th week of school.

• Mrs. Wentworth introduced our class to Mystery Skype! We spent two days practicing before our first one. We will have our next Mystery Skype on Thursday. 
• We started reading buddies with Mrs. Gaynor's kindergarten class. 4T did an amazing job being role models. 
• We completed our first science experiment. We investigated how much water a penny could hold. 
• We practiced multi-digit addition and subtraction.
• We discussed how readers create a movie in their mind when they read and practiced talking about books with a reading partner.
• We used a story mountain to plan our realistic fiction stories and began to write. 

I don't think we could have fit anything else into our busy week! Here are some questions to ask your child about their week. 

• What was your job during Mystery Skype?
• How does Mystery Skype work?
• Who is your kindergarten reading buddy?
• How many drops of water can a penny hold?
• What is your realistic fiction story about?
• What is Fish in a Tree about so far?
• What did you do during your first inside recess?

Here are some photos from the week!
