February Highlights-Hang on, we are making up for lost time in this post!

Okay, hang on tight as we share some of our favorite "highlights" from February.  The month is only half way over and we have been so busy.  Enjoy our very LONG post as we begin with our slideshow of our Valentine's activities.

 


Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Jones
Like any grandparents, they spoiled us with popsicles and cookies.


Listening as grandpa tells facts about New York.


The Living Planet Aquarium came to give a presentation on the water cycle and also brought a few "living" things to show.





Digging for Fossils


What a great way to start a fossil unit!  During the rest of our fossil unit we learned the many ways that fossils are formed!

Reading Incentive
For our January reading incentive we created "story elements" in a cup.  We started with our cup that represented a story.  Then we added crushed up Oreos for a great beginning.  Then we put in our pudding that represented the "middle" of our story.  We added gummy worms for our "surprise elements" then ended with a big topping of whip cream for our unbelievable "ending" of our story.  Our creations looked amazing.
Eating our story elements!


Reading incentives are great!


MORE GREAT ART!
Creating the work of "Paul Cezanne!"

Our fabulous "Mrs. White!"


Wow, what an artist!

Snowball Spelling




Miss Josephson taught a great lesson Friday on contractions.  We even got to have a paper "snowball" fight during the lesson as we learned how contractions are formed.

Geography Bee


Congratulations to our two fantastic students who represented our class so well in the school geography bee.  Way to go!
