Speaking of reading, we finished up our Gold Medal books today and took a vote. The winner in room 2 is a great little story about a dancing hippo called "Hilda Must Be Dancing."
We also took some time today to make our predictions about Groundhog's Day. We can't wait to hear if he sees his shadow on Feb. 2 this year!
We have also been working on becoming experts at using our "Thinking Maps." We have done a lot of "Brain-Storm-ing" with our "Cirle Map," lots of "De-scrib-ing" with our "Bubble Map," we have been able to use our "Tree Map" when "Putting Things in Groups," and we visited our "Double Bubble Map" today for the first time to "Compare and Contrast." I am not just bragging, these kids are experts! Ask them to cheer about the maps for you and you'll see what I mean!
