We've been busy as usual in room 212! If you are interested in being a chaperone for an upcoming field trip, be on the lookout for the sign ups via shutterfly coming soon.
Also, look for our Writing Celebration invitation...your child will bring it home in the next few days! It will be on Halloween/Monday October 31st at 1:15!
In Science:
Our expedition is in full swing. The children have been researching the habitats of Georgia and learning about the landforms, weather and plants and animals in their region. They have also been studying the adaptations of the animals and plants that allow them to thrive in their habitat. We kicked off with our adaptations stations a few weeks ago and since then we've met with an expert from CDC, The Wylde Center, and the EPA! We've been in creek to look for critters and test the water and we hope to petition to name our part of the creek this year!
In math:
We've been learning about multiplication and division using concrete models and manipulatives and we will begin learning about geometry and measurement very soon.
In Reading:
We've worked in Book Clubs to generate questions about text and make predictions based on character's thoughts, dialogue and actions. We've also been brushing up on the parts of speech and how to spell words that end with -ed and -ing.
In Social Studies:
We are going to visit the Dekalb History Center (Nov. 9th) to 'meet' and learn about historical figures: Paul Revere, Mary McLeoud Bethune and Susan B. Anthony.
