Science: Classifying animals into 5 groups: mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians. We introduced all these new concepts, classified different animals and wrote different facts that make them different from each other. (Example: fish have scales, lay eggs and live under water.) They also did small posters on their assigned group, tomorrow they will explain which group they are and the facts we learned.
Homework: Language arts WBP page 23-24 and write three more sentences with three of the vocabulary words. There has been great improvement from all students with sentence writing, lets encourage this skill all the time, they are doing a wonderful job!
