Habitats: Forests

We are studying habitats! Here's a look at what we've learned so far...

Partner Reading

Last week we earned time to partner read outside with Mrs. Mandigo's class!! We had a lot of fun sharing our books and reading together. Click the photos/videos to enlarge them! :)

Oh and here's a picture of these cool kids before our weekly walk.

Measuring Cooper

We read Measuring Penny, written by Loreen Leedy. The book takes us on a mathematical adventure as a little girl measures her dog Penny in many different ways. She uses time lines, pounds, inches, dog bones, and more!

We were so inspired by this story, we decided to create our own book: Measuring Cooper. Here are some pictures of our project!

Treasure Town!

We have been reading Treasure Town, an entertaining chapter book about some friends who love to dig! As a special treat, we met Doug Wilhelm and Sara Lee Terat - the author and illustrator of the book!

They talked to us about the process of writing and illustrating a book. Doug read a chapter of the book to us and Sara Lee showed us some illustrations. Then we got to share our own story ideas for the next book as Sara Lee illustrated.

Morning Choice

Morning choice is always a great time for kids to work and play together. Sometimes they create something wonderful they want to remember and request a photo! 

Here are two groups of kids showing off their creations!
