Do You Want To Build A Snowman?

It is “SNOW” secret, you are unique. Accepting others for who they are and even ourselves for that matter is a great quality. We need to celebrate our uniqueness as well as others. Consider participating in this month’s Snow-person Challenge. Create a snowman or snow-woman from a recycled bottle and decorate the bottle showing your uniqueness. Visit Mrs. McBride’s blog for details by clicking, Snow-person Challenge.

All entries are due Wednesday, January 21st.
Have fun sharing you!

Animal Adaptations

Did you know: Over time, predators develop adaptations to help them catch and kill prey? Well, we took this concept to a whole new level and planned and designed our own imaginary animals with specific adaptations in order to be able to carry out certain tasks. Check out some of our finished displays below!

Towering Multiples!

As part of our math work, we have been focusing on 2×1 and 2×2 multiplication. In order to aid in our understanding of multiples of larger numbers, we decided to construct multiple towers. Not only did we have fun doing this project, but we also made a lot of connections along the way! Check out our hard work and finished products below!
