We started the week by reading this book, then creating our own snow people with ideas like the author, Lois Ehlert, used in her book.
Naturally, a football snowman! =)
Hard at work!
It's serious business trying to get the glue out sometimes!
Very concentrated efffort...
We used clocks to tell time to the hour and half hour.
They loved moving the hands on the clock - I think we have it down, now!
Then we drew the hands on the clock...
In Science, we're learning about force and motion (SOL 1.2), so we took off our shoes to slide on the floor in our socks - and boy, was that FUN! Then we put our shoes back on and tried to slide again - it was harder because of the FRICTION from our shoes!
Really getting into it!
Shoes on was not as much fun - too much friction!
Towards the end of the week, we made snowflakes for a decoration for our hallway bulletin board.
Very pretty! You can't tell in the picture, but they are nice and sparkly!
Ms. Letchworth, a former SHS Teacher Cadet, came to visit and help in our class!
We started creating a multiple-meaning word books. Students had to draw a picture and write a sentence for each word, using context clues to show what their word means.
