Utah Symbols

This week, we learned about the symbols of Utah!  We talked about the state flower, animal, bird, fish, tree, and more.  We did some informational writing and enjoyed learning about some famous places and landmarks in Utah as well.  We learned that Utah is called the "Beehive State" and made our own beehives.  We also wrote about our favorite thing about living in Utah.  The kids wrote things like skiing in the mountains, going to the Jazz game, hiking to Delicate Arch, seeing Temple Square, and visiting the Great Salt Lake.  We made fun maps with special things from Utah on them.  And also made our state bird, a seagull!  We worked on comparing numbers and introduced 3D shapes in math. Enjoy the pictures!

Valentine's Day

We had a great week having lots of fun learning with Valentine's Day themed activities.  We did many fun things with candy hearts and candy kisses. We enjoyed making a pretend Hershey kiss and writing if we like getting hugs or kisses from our families the best.  We have been working hard on leaving spaces between our words and giving a reason that makes sense when we write opinions.   Our favorite thing was turning a candy heart into something new and writing about it!   Our week included our fun Valentine's Day party. Thank you to our awesome parents who donated supplies and came to help out.  The kids had a wonderful time.  Enjoy the pictures!  :)
