       Thanks to all who contributed to our valetine party.  We had a great time and enjoyed some fantastic snacks.  Thanks to Mrs. Hurst who came in earlier in the week to help us make a fun crystal craft. We also did some measurement and other math activities with candy hearts.

We are working on storytelling during writing workshop.  We are learning that stories have a beginning, middle, and an end.  You also can't have a good story without a problem to solve!  We are using the Toontastic app on the iPads to record and animate our stories.  It is a super experience and I can't wait to see how they all come together!  We have some good storytellers in this class.
