How the Grinch Stole Christmas

We read How the Grinch Stole Christmas and came up with adjectives to describe the Grinch at the beginning of the story.  Students worked really hard to come up with ways to make the Grinch smile.


 
 


Non-Fiction

We have been reading a lot of non-fiction texts.  The students have enjoyed learning animal facts.  We studied and learned about the life cycle of both frogs and ladybugs!

Look at Those Pilgrims



We read lots of pilgrim and Thanksgiving books!
 
 
      
 
 
Scholastic also has a wonderful online field trip.  We watched some of the videos together to realize what life was really like for the pilgrims and Native Americans.
 


Thankful Turkeys

Each student wrote what they were thankful for on the turkey feathers!


 


Animal Fridays

Every Friday we learn facts and details about a new animal.  So far we have learned about:
 
African Elephants
 
 Lions
 
 
Giraffes
 
 
Sloths
 
 
Hippos



We just find it animazing to learn all new information!
