Happy New Year!


It's been great getting to know the students so far! This week we completed "About Me" posters so I could learn all of their favorite things. Then we made New Years goals and made new years party hats, too. Wednesday we had a penguin day where we read about penguins, did penguin math, and wrote our favorite facts about penguins. In science, we started our unit on solids, liquids, and gases. We learned new vocabulary words: viscus, transparent, and translucent.
