Parents don't forget to check out the program "Reading Eggs" at home. Our class is using this program at school to help reinforce phonics and reading skills being taught. Each child received a log-in and password that was sent home today. Check out this great resource with no cost and enjoy watching your child have fun while learning how to read!

Science: Motion

We have been learning about gravity and force. One way to put things in motion is to push or pull. We used ramps to experiment how to make the cars go faster and travel a longer distance.

Having fun learning!

Our Trip to the Media Center

During our lesson in the media center, we learned about rhyming words. We were paired up in groups of two and got to use the iPad2 to find rhyming words in the Dr. Suess book app. It was a lot of fun!
