Learning to read CVC words... working with a friend is fun!

Learning about capacity... how much rice will my container hold?  What will happen to the extra rice?  How many small containers will fit inside a larger container?

Here is a picture of 2 of our furry friends, Sven and Bear.  They love to watch us work during the day.  Sometimes they squeak to talk to us!

Thank you to Mary's Mom for coming to show us how to make flour from wheat berries.  We loved listening to the stories that she brought us from the library.  The wheat bread was delicious too!

Here is one of our graphs from our new math wall. First, we voted for our favorite color. Then we wrote our first name on our color. Finally, we talked about what colors had the most, the least or the same number.
