 Lots of learning this week:
ELA- We continue to use our sight words and decoding skills to read and write.  Students learned the different between "Fake Fiction" books and "Real Reading" books.  We also explored the connection between the illustrations and the text of our books.
Math- Students studied and explored 2D and 3D shapes.  
S.S.- We compared and contrasted the USA Flag and the Georgia Flag.  Students also learned the meaning of those important words in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Science- In the Science lab students used their 5 Senses to explore the physical properties of matter.  We also had fun using the physical traits of matter to guess each other's "mystery object".

We are so excited about this year in kindergarten! Did you know that Addison is a Leader in Me school? This means we focus on the "Seven Habits of Highly Successful Children".
