Geologists rock!

Our highlight of the day today was hearing a presentation from two geologists who work for the department of ecology for our state.  They explained how land forms affect our weather and shared about their careers in science.  Keep encouraging your child to wonder and ask questions...they may become a scientist some day!
This morning we finished the Bible story of Jesus calling people to become fishers of men.  We discussed what that meant and how we can be His followers today.
In reading we worked on identifying words containing the long 'u' sound and went on word hunts to add more words to our vowel posters.
The class made good progress in solving addition word problems in math.  It takes some listening and organizing skill, so it's a challenge.
Our story today was about a little girl was building a fort and needed help.  We learned that being part of the process makes sharing the result much sweeter.
In learning centers we practiced sight words, build, drew in response to the geology presentation and worked on decorating our Valentine bags.

This was an excellent day; we love being a part of your kid's learning!
