We started learning about Oceans this week. We read a few books about the hermit crab and other ocean creatures, but we really focused on sharks! We learned a lot of cool facts. We learned about the biggest shark, and also the smallest! The one that dives the deepest, and the one that can live in 3 feet of water! Some like warm water, and some like cold. They also lose A LOT of teeth! We decided we would be rich if we lost as many teeth as a shark did!
Monday and Tuesday we went to watch the 7th and 8th grades perform dances they had been working on in PE. The kids loved it! They were dancing along in the audience! If your child learned a new dance move, its not from me. :)
Tuesday I had a sub so I could test the kids on their reading levels one lasts time this year. I was blown away with their improvement. Mrs. Kelley was our sub, and the kids loved having her. There were a few times we were both in the room and they loved knowing that we were sisters. :)
Tuesday was a sad day for us... it was Tulio's last day! I decided it was more important to spend a little time with the kids (and Tulio), so I didn't quite get done with reading with everyone yet.
We made a book for Tulio about what we liked doing with him, and he made a picture for us to hang in our classroom. We are hoping he is able to come back for the slide show next week!
