Gingerbread Cowboy

We read Gingerbread Cowboy and created a flow map to re-tell the events in the story. We also created our own Gingerbread Cowboys.

Rainforest Unit

This year we used our rainforest unit for the Open House Theme.

Monkey Subtraction

We read The Umbrella by: Jan Brett

We acted out the story using masks printed from Jan Brett's website and a green umbrella.

Then we drew pictures of the characters to create a flow map to show the sequence of events.

We read non-fiction books about Jaguars and Sloths and wrote sentences about them.

We read non-fiction books about Howler Monkeys and created a monkey. Then we wrote a sentence about them on their body.

We made Toucans and built a sentence about them.

We made safari people to look like us, drew an animal we could see in the rainforest and wrote a sentence under a camera around our necks.

Silly Little Goose

In honor of letter g, we read Silly Little Goose. We created a flow map to help us re-tell the story.
The goose tried to make her nest in all the animal's houses. Each time she was called a Silly Little Goose.

Finally, she made her nest in the farmer's hat that had been flying around the farm on every page of the book and had goslings.

The Umbrella

We read the Umbrella by Jan Brett and re-told the story by acting it out using character masks from Jan Brett's website and an umbrella. Then the students illustrated and labeled different characters in the story and we used their illustrations to create a flow map.

Katy No Pocket!

We made a graph of how many pockets we had today. We also used pictures of characters to make a flow map to tell the sequence the characters appeared in the story.

Gingerbread Cowboy!

We read the Gingerbread Cowboy and compared it to the Gingerbread Man. We illustrated the events in the story and created a flow map to re-tell the story. We also made our own Gingerbread Cowboys.
