100 Day



Today was 100 Day. Each child brought a group of 100 things that we could use to learn more about how much 100 really is by counting, comparing, and graphing. The boys in the video are catorizing, counting, and graphing 100 M&M's.

Snow Blanket
by
A.S.
My snow blanket is as soft as a
black fuzzy muzzy bear.
My snow blanket is as white as the clouds.
The wind makes a swish,
Swash sound.
I love it when the snow
goes across
the grass.


Snow

P.H.
Cold
Snowball
Snowflakes
Red nose
Cold hands
Cold body
Hot cocoa and soup

Snow Flakes
by
M.L.
Every winter snowflakes fall.
So the kids play with all.
Its almost summer everyone is sad.
Soon the snow melted.
They thought it was bad.

Symmetry

Our class constructed symmetrical designs during math today. Each student spent time working with pattern blocks, geo-blocks, and mirrored images on the computer. The vocabulary students used included line of symmetry, symmetrical designs, and mirror symmetry. They used the digital camera to take these pictures of their designs.
