Field Trip

Yesterday I went on a field trip to Robinson Woods. It was fun.  I got to hold a salamander.  One of the salamander's were kissing me on the palm of my hand.  It was cute.  It also tickled my hand.  So when we were on the trail we found some Roly-Polys (Pill Bugs).  They are so cute.  There were a lot of them.  Then we went back on the bus to school.

Math- Factors

This week we learned about FACTORS. Factors are multiplying to get a product.  For example 15 is a composite number- because you can get it by timesing 15x1 and 5x3. An example prime number is 7 because the only thing you can multiply to get it is 7x1.

Robinson Woods

This week we went on a Robinson Woods hike. We saw a pileated woodpecker and chipmunk. We turned over a log and found a red back salamander.  We stopped at a rocky area and wrote what we saw in our journal. When we were doing that we heard the woodpecker.  We were behind in time so we did not stop and write a second time about what we saw.  It was really fun. Our hike leader was named Mrs. Gent. It was really fun and cold.

Robinson Woods

One morning I woke up, got dressed and walked down to the bus stop. Once I was at the bus stop I played soccer for a bit. Then the bus came. I got on the bus and was talking with C. Then I got to school walked to class and Mrs. Bucci announced that we were leaving at 8:50 which was in 20 minutes. Then we hopped on the bus. We got to Robinson Woods on bus #3. I sat with my friends both ways-- there and back. When we got there we split up by classes because there were two classes there. Then we played games and started to walk. I think that Robinson Woods was really fun but cold.

Turkeys

This week picked out our animal that live in Robinson Woods to study. My animal was a turkey. Last night I printed out pictures of the turkey and its predators.  I wrote some interesting things about the turkey. Today we are going on our ipads and looking things up about our animals.

Beautiful Animals in Robinson Woods

We learned about Robinson Woods and we picked animals. I was one of the first kids in our class list so I went last. So whatever was left I had to choose from. So I got the Spotted Salamander but I was happy with my choice. After that we went back to our desks. My animal had a book but it was about salamanders in general but not Spotted Salamanders. But thankfully there was a book Critters of Maine. It was about all the animals found in Maine it was the best.

EPIC!

Today we learned about Epic. Epic is a reading app. It is used to read almost any book you can think of (and you can do audio books).  They have categories like NEW on Epic and even SPOOKY! They even have series of books if you go all the way to the bottom. Like Scaredy Squirrel and The Box Car Children. You can search and add new books to your favorites and even check mail! That is why I think EPIC is the most epic book app ever!

GYM!

This week we had GYM. We learned about Gaga Ball and it was fun! I won all the rounds except one. When you get out you play 4 square. It was so much fun but I did not play. We lined up and we went back to class. I like Gaga Ball.

ANGLES and PERIMETER

I loved learning about angles and perimeters. We learned about obtuse angles, right angles, and acute angles. My favorite is the obtuse angles because it is the biggest. Obtuse angles are bigger than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. Acute angles are less than 90 degrees. Right angles are exactly 90 degrees. I loved learning about angles. 

For perimeters we learned how to find the perimeter of a square by taking the width and times'ing it by two. For the perimeter you have to find the width and the height. Then add them all together! If you have 2 for the width and 5 for the perimeter you add 5+2=7 then you double 7= 14! Then there... BOOM you have your answer 14. 
I loved learning about angles and perimeters!

EPIC is EPIC!

Today we learned about the app EPIC. Epic is an app where you can read hundreds of different digital books of different genres or listen to audio books. Epic has many different tools for you if you are having any trouble. If you tap on a word Epic will give you a definition, the pronunciation and if the word is a verb, a noun or an adjective. You can search for different books on EPIC. You can also take quizzes or just read. I think anybody would understand EPIC it is easy which makes it better to use and you have more reading time instead of figuring it out time. I think EPIC is EPIC!

WILD TURKEYS!

Male turkeys can weight between 10-25 pounds. Female turkeys, called hens, weigh between 8-12 pounds. Wild turkeys have many predators like raccoons, skunks, bobcat, snakes, owls and foxes. When settlers came from Europe they found wild turkeys in the most of the Eastern and Central North America. People also use turkey calls to make them come to you so you can kill them or look at them. Mrs. Bucci brought in her turkey caller today!
