(Note from Mrs. G:  We have strep going around our classroom!  If your child has a fever or sore throat, etc, you might want to keep the strep situation in mind.)

Today we found out which insects we are each going to have for our science project.  We got on the computers and got some information about our insects today.  We are going to make our information into a Keynote.

Even better, today we got MEALWORMS!  Mrs. G went to the pet store and bought tubs of mealworms.  They are awesome!  We are going to get to hold them if we want to.  But we are not going to eat them.

We talked about problems and solutions in reading today.  Today in spelling we put the words in their sound groups in a chart.  Our words this week all have the long a or the long e sound.

In math, we played multiplication war with decks of cards.  We also used the iPods and laptops again to practice math facts.
We also learned about coordinate grids and WON FABULOUS PRIZES when we found the location on the grid!
