Static Electricity

As we learn about some forms of severe weather in science we will focus on thunder and lightning storms this week which also gives us a chance to experiment with static electricity.  Students are fascinated that the electrical shock that comes from walking across the carpet is similar to lightning.
In Bible this week we will learn about Jesus ministry of healing with just a touch or a word.
In reading we began studying an informational book and learning about a table of contents and glossary. 
We're beginning a subtraction chapter in math and we worked on subtraction stories today.
After lunch we heard a story about a girl who had some vision problems that affected her school work.  We talked about how good it is to get the right kind of help when we need it.
We practiced writing our new sight words and reading from our readers.
It was nice to have a normal Tuesday back in the library finding great new reads and practicing reading skills in the technology lab.

We've missed these kids over the long weekend and everyone was happy to be back at school.
