FIELD DAY!!

We could not have asked for a more perfect day for our Field Day!

Our Snowy Day

Our snowy day in the classroom continued with our own adventures.  The Superheroes developed the plot of a story involving snow.  After writing their own adventure, they were able to create a snowy picture with glitter to go with the story.   

A Snowy Day

The recent snowy day in Houston inspired me to create a snowy day in the classroom.  We started by reading The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats.  This led to a class discussion about clouds and how the snow was created.  Next, we took a few basic ingredients: baking soda and creme rinse to create our own snow.   The dry and wet ingredients together formed a cold wet clay like mixture!  We used the snow to create our own snowballs and snowmen.  The best thing is it didn't melt!
