Our Day Today!
For R-Time this week, we talked about the word "respect." We made our respect lexicon, did a fun group activity and then played a game of "Roll and Respect!"
We are still working with some fun compound word activities! Today we watched a fun video and then created a flip book with a partner. The challenge was to make sure that our pictures for the individual words did not match the picture for our compound word!
We finished learning about some of the important Texas Symbols today! After learning about the Texas Flag, the Alamo and the Texas Pledge, we wrapped it up by learning the Texas Anthem, "Texas Our Texas" and then the Texas State Motto: Friendship. We are taking what we learned about our symbols and turning some of the facts into a 5W Poem!
There is a very sweet video below of the class singing along to Texas Our Texas! They said they had never heard the song before!
