9/19-9/22

Looking for polygons in our classroom

The kids found a lot of polygons!

We did a photography unit this week in art

The kids looked at different examples of photography, took their own pictures, and then explored their photos using several editing apps. Our last day of photography included having the kids create a pic collage using their favorite pictures

Acting out the story of the Exodus. Those Egyptians just couldn't get through the Red Sea. God delivered his people!
Looking at physical maps

Practicing our keyboarding skills




The kids were able to write on their desks to practice their spelling words. It was quite a big hit:)
