Students have been working in a dino book and recording facts they have learned about each dino after finishing a dino map.
Here are some pics!!
Kolton came in wearing the most fitting shirt when we began learning about them.

What Do You Like Best About School?
Now, if you ask a teacher this question it might be a bathroom break, a moment to sit, or just calmness in the room as your students are focused on their work.
Well, 6 of my kiddos were asked this very question and here are their responses. I must say, that I was excited to see my name and felt famous for a moment (well at least at school). Was she trying to earn some brownie points? I will say, she did!!
I know we're not often recognized for the hard work we put in, day in and day out, but this makes my heart sing. To know that they love school, learning, and of course their teachers!!

Adjectives and Compound Words
We finished up learning about adjectives by making rainbows and rain clouds. They look amazing in our room and brighten it up!
This week we've worked with compound words. After brainstorming a list students made some examples. This activity has been added to word work!
In other news, Silas wanted me to take a picture of the tower he created.
