This week we started learning about telling time using both the hour hand and the minute hand. In preparation for this we made clocks in art class. The kids know how to tell time by the hour very well. They struggle a little bit when it comes to telling time with minutes. Hopefully the clocks we made will be an added tool to assist everyone learning. If not, at least they all look pretty cool!

In reading we read the second story in book 5 "Mole and Baby Bird " . The kids also copied 4 sentences from the white board and used their books to answer each question.

In Tops we continued learning about items in the house, and did work in the workbooks practicing spelling the new words we've learned.

In science class we continued learning about weather. In this weeks lesson we studied changing weather, especially storms, and the instruments scientists use to track the weather.

And finally in grammar class we began learning about adverbs ( adverbs tell about verbs ). The kids seems to understand the concept but they've had a harder time thinking about words that are adverbs. Practice, practice, practice.....
