Water Cycle

We have been learning the importance of the water cycle. We learned a song to help us remember all the different stages of the water cycle.

Madi introduced us to a new game called Hydro Logic.  We had to use our knowledge of the water cycle to complete each level. Click to picture below to play at home.

Spelling Rollercoaster

Last week to practice our spelling words we played Spelling Roller Coaster.  Students had to spell one of our spelling words correctly before entering each obstacle.   Students took turns being the speller and the gate keeper.

Clock Building

We have been working really hard to learning to read an analog clock.  Sometimes it can be tricky to know which hand is the hour hand and which is the minute hand. It can also be tricky to understand why the minute hand "counts by 5's." 
Last week, we built giant clocks out of hula hoops to helps us better understand how an analog clock works to help us tell time better.  In between the numbers we added 4 dot to represent the 4 minutes between the larger numbers to show why the large numbers count by 5's!
