Weekly Update

Wow! This week was full of amazing art projects, math that blew my mind and of course lots of amazing writing. Check it out!

My Family

This week we focused on our families, how our families were the same, how they were different and why families are important. With this theme students drew a picture showing who lived in their house, many students reported that they wouldn't be able to fit their whole family in one picture :), so we decided to narrow it down to who we lived with! Then after drawing students labeled their pictures and wrote about it in a list format. I was so impressed with their amazing work and the details they included. Check them out:

My family has my mom and my dad and my brother and my baby sister.

In my family there is my mom and my dad and my brother and Milo!

My family has mom, dad and Jack.

Wants and Needs

In social studies this week we continued discussing what being thankful meant as well as looking at things in our life that we need versus things that we want. Students came up with some amazing examples and they even had quite the conversation about if a cell phone was something that we need or something that we want! Then students got to choose a need and a want to draw and write about. Check them out:

I want a cookie. I need a house.

I want a cupcake. I need water.

I want a princess dress. I need a house.

Sorry this post is so short this week. I am racing to get progress reports done before they go home on Friday! Thank you for sharing your children with me for yet another amazing week! The countdown has begun to Thanksgiving and then Winter Break. I can't believe how fast it is going but I am loving every minute!

Smiles,
