Week 19

This week was the first full week back from Winter Break. We had a lot going on across all of the grade levels. This week was also College Week and we had the Spelling Bee and Career Day as well.

Pre-K was learning about nursery rhymes so I read Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed by Eileen Christelow.

Kindergarten was learning all about neighborhoods, so I read One Afternoon by Yumi Heo.

Both First and Second grade were studying government. First grade was learning about the president, so I read Grace for President by Kelly DiPucchio.

Meanwhile, Second grade was learning about the mayor. I read LaRue for Mayor: Letters from the Campaign Trail by Mark Teague.

Third and Fifth grades watched a PowerPoint presentation on primary and secondary sources. Afterward, they had a quiz. In Fourth grade, we discussed the difference between fact and opinion. I gave them several examples and they had to tell which one it was.
