Celebrate Literacy Week was a very fun week full of lots of fun activities!!!!
During our Literacy block we had so many fun events throughout the week. Each day at 8:30 we did Stop, Drop and Read where we stopped what we were doing, left our mess and Miss Miranda read a story to us! We also had mystery readers come to read to us during Stop Drop and Read. On Tuesday, Mr. Raymond came to read us a story. He read us Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss. We were SOOO excited to have him come visit us! After Stop Drop and Read, we would all sit down and read our own book, even Miss Miranda and Miss Sarah would read their own books!
We also had the Library Club come surprise us during Math one day to do some buddy reading with us. Also, on Thursday we met with our buddy class, Grade 4a, to do buddy reading. We loved having older students read us stories and some of us even read stories to them, too!
In Math, we learned that 2+3 has the same answer as 3+2. We also learned how to write a vertical addition problem.
In Science, we practiced using our sense of sight and sense of smell. Miss Miranda put some mystery things in a cup and poked holes in the lids and we had to use just our noses to try to guess what was inside! Most of our guesses were correct!
In Art, we did Where the Wild Things Are paintings in honor of literacy week and Maurice Sendak.
On Thursday, we wore our costumes for Dress Like a Book Character Day and had a costume parade. We did a great job making sure that our costumes were of book characters and we had some great homemade costumes!
Here are a bunch of pictures from the week!
