What is a force?

That is the question we are answering in our new science unit on physics.  This week we are exploring the world of pushes and pulls.  Ask your child to list the forces that push and pull at home.
At Bible time we began studying the story of Daniel and his friends.  We prayed to be like Daniel today and to stand up for the truth.
In music the class is practicing for the Christmas program.
We had fun graphing our own groups of data in math.  Everyone did a great job of comparing data from their graph and making conclusions.
We also compare in literature, and the class compared and contrasted a new version of the 'Three Little Pigs' at story time.
In reading we worked on our new reader and awarded everyone who turned in a completed reading log. 
After defining the words force, push and pull, we sorted photos that illustrated those forces.  Students were able to judge the difference between a strong force and a gentle one.
At the end of the day we had our turn in the library and technology lab.  We worked on letter sound recall on the computers.

Blessings,

Mrs. Luoma
