Why Are Short Weeks Sooooo Long

Why are short weeks so long--- I'm really not sure but this week was only 3 days long but they were looooong days!!!

Monday and Tuesdays I was still in NYC. A little GMA and I'm ready to read library lion next week!!!

                     

Second grade finished their 3 Pigs unit with the i Pads.  We completed a Venn Diagram I learned about from Matt Gomez's Blog.    I used this free download from TPT for an idea also.  After we finished our Venn Diagram the students played a concentration game on this 3 Little Pig App.  They have never checked out books so quickly.  

First Grade worked with Fiction and Non Fiction books.  I gathered a bunch of books and we looked at what made them fiction or non fiction.  I have made a resource list in destiny that makes pulling books for this project easy!!

                                           

Fourth Grade began a unit on Non Fiction Books.  I used the big book--A Pet for Every Person.  I got it several years ago and it is a great book to introduce all the parts of a non fiction book.

Speaking of Destiny Resource Lists--I pull books each week for our K4 classes to go with the letter of the week.  I have made resource lists for each letter.  It makes pulling books for these classes very easy and I don't have to rethink what book goes with which letter or spend time looking for a book that is checked out.
