Dear Families,
Happy Valentine's Day on Sunday! We celebrated Valentine's Day today by having a party. We are going to be having our party the last 2 periods of the day. There's going to be lots of cards.
This week we had a busy week. We learned about magnets. We learned that if you drop something that is magnetic, a magnet is a quick way to pick it up. We went around the classroom testing things that we thought or knew were magnetic. We did an activity that everybody had paper cards and 2 people had magnet cards. One magnet went to the horseshoe table and 1 magnet went to the mailboxes. Everybody else had an item. When Mrs. Deyoe said "attract", if people thought the item was magnetic they would go to a magnet, and if they thought they weren't magnetic they would go to the carpet. We also watched a video about magnets. Mrs. Deyoe put up the Theme Studies board on a bulletin board inside our classroom. It said what magnets do.
We are writing poems for our poetry book. We started editing and publishing poems. Everybody's thinking they are great! Mrs. Deyoe is typing our poems up. You are only allowed to get 3 poems published, illustrated, and typed up. Sometimes people make shapes out of their poems and sometimes they make shapes in their poems.
We started getting lots more table points and higher scores because Mrs. Deyoe has been saying "slean up" and the first table ready gets, 2, 3, or 4 points. We were taking too long to clean up and now we clean up quicker.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL!
