To help the environment and celebrate Earth Day, the students pitched in to clean up the school yard. 
In Language Arts, we continue to work on writing paragraphs for the All About Me project. After meeting with us to edit their work, the students have been typing them for publishing. 
The students are enjoying their Spring Joke book to practice their handwriting! 
We read a variety of stories from the Collections series. The students look forward to reading out loud to the class. 
We finished our Measurement unit in Math by learning about mass. We discussed the difference between grams and kilograms and came up with referents for each. The students also had some time to explore the mass of different objects around the room. 
We launched our new unit, Fractions, by reading a story about how so share different types of fruit equally. 
In Social, we have been reading through the textbook and making jot notes about the important things we have read. They also spent some time working on their title pages for our new unit. 
We completed our last Survivor challenge. The students built a variety of shapes using brad clips and paper strips. Then they were asked to find a way to reinforce the shapes to make them stronger. When the students added more strips of paper inside the shapes they found out that they were making triangles. They discovered that reinforcing shapes with triangles, makes them stronger.
