Water Cycle and 3-D Shapes

 
 
Happy Christmas Eve! I hope everyone has a fun-filled holiday spent with family and friends!
Thank you for all who pitched in for my birthday gift! Definitely feeling loved with all the presents I received. The picture is only a small portion of all the birthday/Christmas gifts I got.

The kiddos definitely enjoyed the Holiday party on Friday. We ate snacks, made candy cane reindeers, did our book exchange, and had a mini celebration for Linh and Amy since their birthday is during the break. It sure was a busy morning.

 
 

Even with antsy kids, an exciting week ahead, and a full moon, I managed to teach 40 students academics. In science, we focused on the water cycle.


Our weekly Vietnamese words for the last week before the break were:

với = with

cái= a/the

chơi= play

đi= go/went

nói= tell/talk

 

In math, we worked on identifying 3-D shapes. We discovered the number of faces, edges, and vertices each shape had. I let them do a lot of hands on activities this week to discover the attributes of 3-D shapes.



 Classroom Wishlist:

Crayons! (We are in need of some new crayons)

Magazines with appropriate pictures (The students use magazines from time to time to search for pictures)

Markers

Gluesticks
