Don't forget to dress in your best clothes tomorrow! We will be practicing our manners during a fancy lunch! It's also show-n-tell tomorrow. Bring something that begins with S or something you are thankful for!
We read the story The Three Little Pigs today. I love how everyone knows this story so they were able to help me read it! Afterwards, we talked about becoming engineers and building houses that would not fall over if the Big Bad Wolf came by. First, students got to choose what building materials they wanted to use (legos, blocks, Lincoln logs, paper, etc). Then they could build a house by themselves or collaborate with friends. After their house was built, they needed to see if they could blow it down. Very few houses fell over so students did a great job!!!
Yesterday we talked about teepees and learned how Native Americans made them. We used the tools we had (chairs, tables, rest towels and blankets) and made our own teepees. During read to self time, we took turns reading in the ones we helped build.
