Reduce, Reuse & Recycle - Protect Our Earth

  Our most recent science unit was on Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. We analyzed our trash from snack time and we talked about how we could do a better job reducing, reusing and recycling. We read books about how to reduce, reuse and recycle and we watched videos about how to do this better too. The students then chose recycled items and then made them into something else! Just like Oscar the Grouch, we love trash!  With the help of our 4th grade partners, students in room 101 had a wonderful time creating new items with the trash we collected.  We made coin jars, binoculars, robots, maracas, bird feeders and fun toys!  

Congratulations!

 This week we had many students complete their next Boost Quest(s)! Way to go Room 101. We also had an at home reader and a Hoot card earner.

Making 2D and 3D Shapes

  On Wednesday we worked hard on our Envision Math Topic 13- Shapes. We worked on three math stations after completing our math mats. We constructed three dimensional shapes using clay and toothpicks. We made two dimensional shapes out of pipe cleaners and drew shapes in shaving cream. On Thursday, we used the geoboards to create shapes then we used the Geoband app on the iPad to recreate our shapes! We had a lot of fun at these math stations.
