Tomorrow is our field trip to our Earth Day movie. We will be returning to school prior to lunch. Students will eat snack before departing. There will be no food/snack items on the trip. Here's a link to an informative panda video that we viewed in class. We are also reading about Pandas.
We read The Bunyans on pages 726 - 743 in our Storytown book. This is about Paul Bunyan and his family. We get to learn what happens to Paul "later in life" and what his other family members are like. Today we took our story test.
This story helped us to discuss the elements of a Tall Tale, which is a fictional story that exaggerates the truth. Tall tales began as campfire stories told by American pioneers. We read a brief book about Paul Bunyan. Here's a 15 minute Walt Disney video about Paul Bunyan.
Spelling Test Unit 28 on Friday.
