MORE SNOW



Señor Geffen played a game with us in Spanish.  We had to listen carefully to what type of weather he called out and then find the picture that matched.










Large and small snowflakes were created by those students that did not have a chance to make one yesterday.   Rolling the shapes needed to make a snowflake is a one way to help develop hand control










Continuing our exploration of snowflakes we read 'Snowflake Bentley' by Jacqueline Briggs Martin. 


Using a microscope attached to a camera, he managed to take photographs of snowflakes.  





 We took another look at our classroom rules we made in September and checked to see if anyone had ideas for new rules we should add to the list. 

      These are the rules we made in September
  1. Be nice to someone and that person will be nice to you.
  2. Ask “After you are done, can I play with that?”
  3. Raise your hand at group time and wait until the teacher calls on you. Then you can talk.
  4. Say “Yes, you may” when someone asks to play with you.


What else do you think we should add to our list?
Leonard: Treat someone like a human being. Be nice to other people.
Grace: No running in the classroom.
Ike: No climbing in the classroom.
Nolan: No jumping on chairs. 
Margot: No standing on chairs.
Luca: No jumping on tables.
Valentina: No sitting on the tables.
Grace: No standing on the tables.
Margot: No climbing up on the tables.
Beatrix: No climbing over the bar of the lofts.
Luca: Don’t put your feet on the tables.
Leonard: Don’t jump on books or stand on them, and don’t stand on people.
Nolan: No pouring water on your head.
Fang: No jumping over the tables.
Ike: No throwing books.
Grace: No throwing something from the loft.
Beatrix: No breaking something that someone else has built.
Valentina: No running in the class.



The class was definitely thinking about our 'Safety' rule today.
