Wonderful Wednesday~!

We have been so busy we have hardly had time to blog.  Here are some things we have been doing:

- We have been studying balance in science.  We have learned about balance, stable positions and counterweights.

- In math we have been studying fractions.  We have learned about equivalent fractions which means there are two fractions that are equal but have different names, like 1/2 and 4/8. 

- In Art we started a weaving project.  Our weaving has to be a pattern.  Mr. Moore said we are making a fabric.

- We have been decorating our door for I Love to Read month.  Our book is How Full is Your Bucket and we are trying to help fill buckets of our classmates and those around our school.  This week we are having Drop Everything and Read at surprise times.  We have to be ready to read anywhere, anytime.

-  Last Thursday, we had our popcorn party as our reward for good lunchroom behavior.

- February is also Dental Health month.  We read Open Wide Tooth School Inside and Tooth Trouble to learn about our teeth and why we need to keep them healthy.  We need to brush our teeth at least twice a day.  You should try to visit the dentist twice a year.

-  We started a new writing project about something we like to do at home.  We are practicing wiring a paragraph with one main and 4 details.

That's all for now!
