Thursday

We started out our day at the assembly watching all the boys and girls receive their awards for their science fair projects! It was fun and everyone seemed very excited to win! Then we came back to the class and ran morning meeting while Ms. Gray observed the leadership. She was very impressed that we were able to run the meeting as if she was running it! 

During math we worked in our math workbooks and made our own surveys. We asked everyone in our class if they like to do something that we like to do. We had to practice writing all of our friends names and keeping track by collecting & recording data (information).

During UOI today it was AMAZING! We learned about astronauts and how they are very smart scientists who travel to outer space. Before they go to outer space they have to go to space camp and learn about traveling in space and how to get used to life without gravity. We read the story about Pete the Cat when he was going to space camp! It looks like lots of fun! We did an art project and Ms. Gray took our pictures to make ourselves into astronauts. After we completed this, Ms. Gray watched as the kiddos played "astronauts" and flew around the room!

We were so well-behaved for Ms. Gray today and even surprised her multiple times by sitting quietly in our seats until she came behind us! She was SHOCKED-- even mlle. Jessica was shocked!

One of our friends was VERY excited because he lost his tooth at recess yesterday! I think this is the most I have ever seen him smile. :)

For our journal today we wrote about astronauts. Some of us wrote about how astronauts are clever scientists. Some wrote about how they are very strong people. Some wrote about the animals that went to space in Pete the Cat! We had fun to writing today and when we were finished some of our friends drew pictures of rockets and some drew the moon... some of our friends decided to read a story in the tent.
