Panda Path Reflections

Panda Path Reflections...hearts filled with JOY!

We had the most rewarding experience today sharing our books with new Pre-K friends at Panda Path!

 Reflecting on the day, what did you enjoy most? How did it feel reading and giving the books to the students? Please share any thoughts that you have about this wonderful experience!

Legend Brainstorming!

As we have read several Native American legends, we have enjoyed creating our own list of the important elements of a good legend.  Most importantly, we now know that the main purpose of a legend is to explain something in the natural world.

Let's brainstorm some ideas for our legends!

What will your legend explain? What are some possible character names that you will use? Think about our character list that we started in class.  Will the Creator/Great Spirit have a role in your legend? What about the number 4?

Science Study Hall!

Monday is your first science test. You've been learning about the metric system and nutrition. Please share four to five facts that you have learned during these units. What is your studying strategy? Be sure to write in complete sentences and  use the correct punctuation and capitalization. 

Electronic Reading vs. Paper Book Reading

We have really enjoyed "E" reading each week on our classroom iPads!

So far we have focused on...

• True Flixs
• Book Flixs
• Follett Shelf 
• Kid Rex Safe Searches
• Infobits

Please share your thoughts on "E" reading. What is your favorite text to read? Do you love to read books on Follett Shelf? Do you love the True Flix books? 

Which do you really prefer "E" reading or paper book reading?  

Because of Winn Dixie

"I could feel her listening with all her heart, and it felt good."

Gloria Dump is really turning out to be a lovely friend to Opal. Pleases share your thoughts about their budding friendship.

Also, I really love how the preacher listed 10 things about Opal's mom. For fun, you can experiment making a top 10 list about your mom, yourself or any important person in your life.
Enjoy!
