all about me! and coconuts and freebies!

We spent time writing all about me books. Then we made ourselves and attached the book to the shirt. They turned out looking adorable. This idea is from Deanna Jump. Before all that I read them my all about me book. Here are a few of the pages.

 

We also read A My Name is Alice and followed up with this craft. This idea is also from Deanna Jump. We used bingo dot markers to make our rainbow names.

 We read these cute books to introduce our theme.

We also measured our friend with yarn. This adorable idea is from Julie Lee.  

We did our first science experiment . . . Will a coconut sink or float? Here is our graph we made to record our hypothesis. We followed up with the recording sheet below.

We had fun with with our names. We counted the letters in our name.

 

 

 We read A my name is Alice and made this cute craft from Deanna Jump's fun with names math and literacy unit.

We rainbow dotted our names with bingo markers.

 

We read Chrysanthemum and graphed how many letters we have in our names.

 

We graphed how do you get home from school from Deanna Jump's back to school unit.

 

 We also graphed boys and girls in our class.

 

 Oh my I  am in love with Miss Viola Swamp from Julie Lee. They turned out adorable. After reading Miss Nelson is Missing we compared our class to Miss Nelson's naughty class.

 

We also made No David from Julie Lee and talked about being a peacemaker versus a peacebreaker.
