I'm Proud Of...
We talked about the word "PROUD" and defined it as "Being happy about something you did well or learned." We decided we could be proud about things like reading, writing, learning math, scribbling with different colours instead of just one, climbing things in the playground, running faster than before, and a whole bunch of things.
Then, we got to look through our class work collection, remembering things we did all the way back in September up until now. We picked things we were proudest of. Everybody then picked the one thing they were most proud of doing or learning this year, and we wrote it on "Page 2" of our Report Cards, which will be going home next week.Scientists in the Schools - Simply Marvelous Machines
Scientist Karin came into our class and taught us about all sorts of machines! We learned about inclined planes by rolling different items; gears by making things like egg beaters move to mix soap; fulcrums by using teeter-totters and Little People toys; wedges by learning the rhyme "if it has an edge, it's a wedge!"; and wheels and axels by moving a bunch of different items in many different ways. We learned machines are things that make our life easier, but they can be as complicated as a car or as simple as a zipper.
June Portfolio
Our Portfolio is now finished! We can see how we drew in every month, from September to June, and all the improvements that we've made!
Reading Buddy Commemorative Plates
Rather than write a "Thank You" card for our Reading Buddies, we decided we'd come up with something they could literally remember us by! We used paper plates, glue, stickers, foam, tissue paper, markers, pastels, crayons and, most importantly, a black and white picture to create a Commemorative Plate!
