Air and Weather, Oh My!

We had another full week of learning! We had our first writer's celebration, and then learned how to take a tiny topic and start writing a small moment story. We began grouping with base ten blocks and are using what we know about 10's to add double digit numbers. In science, the kids had a blast--quite literally with a blast of water in some cases--doing experiments that taught them about the properties of air. Ask them about air pressure, air resistance, and compressed air. We learned about all of it, and had lots of fun doing it! This coming week, we look forward to beginning our unit on what it means to be a good citizen, which will lead into what leaders in the community are supposed to do, how laws are made, and what the process of voting looks like.
