Geometry Power Week

G'day mate (Gianluca)

In reading this week we have been working on character traits and the character feelings (Huai). We have also been working on reading our just right books and building stamina (Daniella). We have been reading two books and one of them is funny...it is called The World According to Humphrey (Katharine). Another book we are reading is called Because of Winn Dixie. This book is about a girl who helps a dog named Winn Dixie and they become best friends who have adventures (Jacklyn).

In writing we have been writing our personal narratives. Mostly everyone is still writing the beginning and middle (Gabrielle). Today we were teaming up with partners and the partners helped up fix or add on to our story (Sneha). We will continue working in our partnerships throughout the writing process (Miss Sullivan).

In math we have been working with shapes. Our unit is called geometry (Brandy). We learned about what a polygon is (Faris) - a closed 2d figure with straight lines and more than three sides (whole class).

In social studies  we have been learning about citizenship and how to respect others (Brendan). We made posters of how to be a good citizen and they are displayed in our classroom! (Huai)
