This week we had an amazing time learning about a lot of cool things. In Science we observed bees (we will be using them to pollinate our flowers soon!) and measured our plants. They are getting really tall and are growing buds! In Reading we began to learn how to recognize the main idea and supporting details in a story. We read some short articles and stories and worked on finding the main idea and supporting details using a graphic organizer. In Writing we learned how to tell a story using a storyteller's voice. We wrote a class story to practice using our storyteller voices. We worked harder on picking a small moment and completed story maps to organize our ideas to write our first narrative piece. In Math we finished Unit 1 and had our first test. We began Unit 2 and learned the Properties of Addition. The properties are the Commutative Property, the Associate Property and the Identity Property. We also began practicing our song "Really Be Responsible" for our Character Education Assembly that is going to be on October 21st. Our class, along with Mrs. Sirianni's and Mrs. Szczech's class are going to share a song and teach the other kids in the school what it means to be responsible!
