Moving into winter

Winter Lit:
Polar Express
The Little Match Girl (When we got home from work, she told me the story, and then told me she didn't like it, because it was sad)

Math:
Graphing using pieces from Polar Express, and polar express themed word problems (simple ones)

In addition, she goes and checks the thermometer on the patio and charts the temperature for the day.

We are working on graphs, and charts, and fast addition facts. She took a 3 minute timed test, and got 100% on it on Wednesday.

Science:
The temperature charting leads right into science, as we study what changes are going on in the weather, such as, why can we see our breath when it's cold? We are also studying how organisms are classified into the 5 systems (Animal; Insects; Bacteria; Fungi; etc)

Spelling:
We are pulling spelling/vocab words out of the lit books we are reading and using them in a sentence.

Last nite, she and Grandma made Stone Soup for dinner, based on the recipe Brittani wrote from the Stone Soup book.
