We were only in school for 3 1/2 days this week, but we still learned a lot! We learned about summarizing stories by listening to the story "Duck for President" and creating a sticky note summary book. We also learned about subjects and predicates, began social studies, and even became artists as we began to recreate Vincent van Gogh's painting,"Sunflowers." It was a great week!
