TGIFriday, April 25

Well...we began our day with an epic Pinterest fail on my part... I tried to kick-off our Life Science Unit on Fossils with fossil cookies... and they were so cool/cute before I cooked them...

Then, when they puffed up in the oven, they lost their impressions. :( So, we ended up having fossil cookie crumbles. :) It's the thought that counts, right?!

After an amazing Art (we earned a potato head piece! One more to go...), we worked with 2-dimensional shapes and their properties. We made ADE's twitter feed during our Quadrilateral Roundup 

and then worked with lines of symmetry in a very artistic manner. Unfortunately, it was indoor recess but then we listened to more of Bud, Not Buddy through iTunes. In Reader's Workshop, we found letters with symmetry using the capital alphabet, enjoyed some of the activities within our StoryWorks magazine and read silently and independently. To finish out the day, we wrote a narrative about how we'd spend a week if we were a dollar bill. I can't wait to read these!
