Week in Review

We wrapped up our biographies, started to learn about creating and
analyzing data, and analyzed characters in fairy tales!
This week, we read Little Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and The Three Little Pigs.

Week in Review
The kids have had so much fun working to complete their biography research. The kids worked to pull out key details of their chosen person. 
 We took those details and wrote notes using bullet points.


This week we're turning our notes into books!

We also learned about Leap Years on Friday! This was the perfect next conversation after wrapping up our unit on Spinning Earth.

The kids learned why we have leap years and made their own time capsules to be opened in 2024!
