Reading Buddies

Every Friday we meet with our Reading Buddies with Mrs. Ewer's 3rd grade class. My class truly looks forward to seeing them every Friday. It is just a good time reading and socializing about literature. This past Friday we decided to interview each other. They asked each other the basic questions; name, favorite candy, favorite teacher, favorite book, etc. To throw in a curve ball they asked one another which Avenger was their favorite, and why. They had a lot of fun interviewing each other. Mrs. Ewers and I even interviewed each other. They were truly tickled to learn that my favorite Avenger was the Hulk because he looks like my cute husband. Lol. Meeting with them is always a positive end to the day.

Voting

Our book character parade is this Friday,  November 1. As a class this year we voted on which book character we would be. We love Pete the Cat, Clifford, and 3 Little Pigs. Each student receive a piece of paper, they wrote their name, and then wrote either number 1, 2, or 3. After they got in line and casted their vote. We then counted the votes. They were very excited to see that Pete the Cat won the election. So... On Friday we will be Pete the Cat. 

In the pictures you may notice a lot of hats, and mustaches. It it red ribbon week in our district. They were allowed to wear hats, and mustaches today. We had a lot of fun today. 

Brothers and Sisters

In social studies we have focused on families this past week. Today we discussed the topic of brothers and sisters. We read the book, Julius baby of the World and made text to self connections with the book. We continued to talk about how we love our siblings. After the discussion we created a class Venn diagram.

Rainbows

We love science. In science we hav focused on properties, matter, and the 5 senses. We discussed the properties of light and how a rainbow contains all the colors and how they are created. The kids had a lot of discussing rainbows, and creating them in class.
