Maps and Globes

This week we began a new social studies unit, "Where." We started with a brainstorm of what we think we know about Maps and Globes.  


Our shared reading this week reinforces new vocabulary like "location," "country," and "state."


We are also practicing location words like "between," "above," and "below."

Changing Speed

We had a new push and pull science investigation today. We are learning about changing speed. We used a clipboard with blocks to create a ramp. The more blocks we added the higher the ramp. Ask us if our car goes faster or slower with 1,2,or 3 blocks in our ramp.

Productive Struggle

Today we worked with partners to sort math pictures. We had to make a plan, cut, sort and glue. Look at how many different ideas we had! 






Productive Struggle

Today we worked with partners to compare shapes. We used math vocabulary like "more, less, sides, corners, taller," and "shorter."
