In Math we learned about angles. We learned that angles are two rays that meet at an endpoint. We learned about right, acute, and obtuse angles. We found examples of right angles in our classroom, including the windows, mailboxes, whiteboards, computer monitors, and our desktop nametags. We used our bodies and pipe cleaners to create the three different types of angles.

We read and categorized our facts about the countries we have been learning about. The categories included the population of the countries, capitals of the countries, food, land formations, and weather.

To practice our vocabulary words, we worked in small groups to brainstorm examples of things that would make us content, things that would put us in distress, and things that we would be desperate for.

We wrote Important Thing poems about our favorite holiday people/animals, including Santa, Rudolph, Mrs. Claus, and elves. These will posted on the blog with the illustrations made by the students.

Today we had Spanish, PE, and Guidance.
