Poetry Share!

Dear Parents,

      Today, we had a poetry share since we have studied poems for so long. We made poetry books. At the poetry share, we all lined up in line order at the side of the room. Some kids volunteered to explain what type of poem is which. Then we all shared 2 poems, one at a time. There were a lot of different themes. After we all shared a couple poems, we went back to our tables. All the parents and the kids looked at other poetry books and left comments. I loved doing the poetry share!

Music

Dear Parents, 

     Last week we saw these two college students their names were Blaire and Rachel. Last Saturday they preformed a show called Pinocchio. They were both in the show. We got tickets on Friday. In a part of the show the two girls told us to act like a old person and other things. In a part of the show the two girls made some people freeze in front of the classes, and the two girls asked what the three kids looked like to the classes. It was a blast I hope they do it again next year because it was so much fun!

Math Update!

Dear Parents, 

          We are giving you an update of what we have been doing in math because we haven't blogged about its very recently. Last week we started learning about Measurement. Also a couple of weeks of go we started learning about gallons, pints, quarts and other thing since the past few weeks. Our class has been doing a lot of measurements lately. It has been incredibly fun. We have this thing called a math book that's were all our lessons are for us to do the math in for example there's: 15-1 which is in the right top hand corner one more thing for a example in the top left hand corner that is the front of the cover of my class math book.

Poetry

Dear Parents,

   Last week we started poetry in writing. We have learned about Haikus and we have also started learning about Tankas. Today we started acrostic. Only some people  got to do acrostic and some people did not get to start acrostic. A haiku is a poem that has a pattern of 5, 7, 5. A tanka is two haikus squashed together! An acrostic poem is where you make a word by stacking the letters on top of each other. Then you connect a phrase to each letter in the word. The phrase has to do something with the original word. Each person picked a theme to write all their poems on. Then we came up with topics for that theme to write individual poems with. My name is Allison and my theme is dreams. Some topics for that theme are good dreams, nightmares, and crazy dreams. My name is Sydnie and my theme is the Zoo. Some topics I have for my theme are giraffes and gorillas. Everybody will put their poems together to make a poetry book. So then everybody will have their own poetry book with all their poems in it. My name is Kate and my theme is summer, and some topics I have for my theme are popsicles and the beach. But that is what we have been doing in writing!

Money Bank

Dear Parents, 

       A couple of weeks ago we started this thing called a money bank. The dollars for the money bank have different kinds of dogs on them. The dollars Mrs. Baker has is 20, 10, 5, and 1's. They're called puppy dollars. Mrs. Baker gave us this money book where we record our money. Mrs.Baker stapled a bag in our money book where we keep our money. The things we get our money for is bonuses, homework, jobs ( classroom jobs), and other things.

Bethel Park

Dear Parents, here are some pictures from our field trip to bethel park! 

Our trip to Bethel Park started with a long walk!>

<Most of the things people got on their faces were animals or at least facial hair.......Me, sydnie got bushy eyebrows, sideburns, mustache, and a beard. Me, Allison, decided to look like a tiger.

     The field trip was split into stations. One was fishing. Here is a pic of Merrik with a fish that he caught.

                                                                                        

<Another station had Bochi ball and horse shoes. This is Kate playing a game of horse shoes in action.                                                                                                  

This is the arts and crafts station. At one picnic table, you could make visors. Here they are making bracelets

Here is a snapshot of Natalie hoola-hooping at a games station.

Here is a picture of our class playing " Over and Under ". We are
