Reading, Science, Social Studies & More...

There have been many activities going on in Rm 131 this week!

We are well into our Thinking Maps... This week we used the Double Bubble Map for Reading to Compare/Contrast, and the Bridge Map for Science to discuss the relationship between specific measurements and the tool used to measure. 

In Writing, we completed our unit on Dialogue Conventions and will start putting them to use next week.

We started a new unit in Social Studies and finished our Unit in Science.

Here are some photos of our week!

Busy week in Parrot-Dise...

A lot of learning has been going on in Rm 131. In Math we are working on "Estimating". In Writing we are learning about dialogue conventions, and the Scientific Process in Science. In Reading we are using our "Thinking Maps" to reinforce our skill of Compare/Contrast and Vocabulary. 

Tuesday night was "Beauclerc" night at McDonalds. Thank you to those who supported our school. 

Here are some photos from our week.....
