Friday News - 1/28-2/1

We had a lot of fun during this Spirit Week! Here are some pictures:

Here's a look at our week:

Reading: This week we learned about Cause and Effect. We played several games to match the cause and effect and read some books. We will continue learning about this next week.

Writing: We started our unit on Poems. We spent the week observing special objects and writing down what they looked like and what they reminded us of. We will turn these observations into poems.

Math: We continued learning about three-digit subtraction. We learned how to borrow from the hundreds place, how to borrow twice, and how to borrow across zeros. Next week we will take our test.

Bible: This week we learned about Jesus raising a widow's son from the dead, calming a storm, and healing a man who was possessed by demons. We learned that Jesus has power over death, storms, and demons.

Kid City: We learned about the Bank. We practiced cashing a check and making a deposit.
