JAN JAN

WE READ ABOUT HIBERNATION AND THE DIFFERENT ANIMALS THAT HIBERNATE. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT THE DIFFERENT PLACES THAT THEY HIBERNATE.
 










TO CELEBRATE CHINESE NEW YEAR WE TALKED ABOUT THE DIFFERENT ANIMALS THAT REPRESENT EACH YEAR AND THE KIDS LOVED THIS FILE FOLDER GAME.

ONE OF OUR CO-WORKERS COACHES THE 10TH GRADE BASKETBALL TEAM AND HAD ASKED NUMEROUS TIMES FOR US TO COME TO A GAME WELL HE FINALLY GAVE UP AND QUIT ASKING... SO WE KNEW IT WAS THE PERFECT TIME!

YOU GET WHAT YOU ASK FOR!

DR. MARTIN LUTHUR KING JR

WE READ ABOUT DR. MARTIN LUTHUR KING JR. WITH NEW-2-YOU AND TALKED ABOUT DIFFERENT FACTS THE ARTICLE TAUGHT US ABOUT HIM.

WE ALSO LABELLED WHAT HE HAD, WANTED, AND WHO HE WAS.

WE MADE A CRAFT OF MARTIN HIMSELF. 
THE MUSTACHES WERE TOO FUNNY!

WHEN LEARNING ABOUT MARTIN, WE TALKED A LOT ABOUT PEACE. I FOUND THIS GREAT WORKSHEET FOR STUDENTS TO SHOW UNDERSTANDING A PEACEFUL AND NOT PEACEFUL AND MADE IT INTO AN ANCHOR CHART.

THIS IS THE WORKSHEET I FOUND ON PINTEREST:


POLAR BEAR, POLAR BEAR

WE READ ABOUT POLAR BEARS AND TALKED ABOUT THE CAN, HAVE, AND ARE OF THE MAMMAL.

WE MADE POLAR BEAR PRINTS WITH A STENCIL OF THE BEAR AND A COMBINATION OF SHAVING CREAM, GLUE AND GLITTER. THE STUDENTS PAINTED AROUND THE ENDGE OF THE STENCIL.

WE ALSO READ A LOT OF POLAR BEAR, POLAR BEAR AND USED THE ANIMALS TO HELP TELL THE STORY ALONG WITH A SWITCH TO READ “WHAT DO YOU HEAR?”.

THE ANIMALS ARE FROM A STORY TELLING KIT FROM LAKESHORE LEARNING.
