Poetry Unit Coming Soon!

My poetry unit is coming up soon! I'm excited!
This year I'm teaching a combo class of 2nd and 3rd grade. When I previously co-taught a combo class we did the poetry unit all together, but because of scheduling I've decided to keep in a 3rd grade thing this year. I have a gut feeling that next year it won't be a combined class so I figure the 2nd grade will get to do it next year when I have them all on their own.

I can't wait to share some of the poems my students write this year!

Columbus Unit

We made these back in the fall. Not sure where I found the ship to cut out, but they turned out really cute. Under the water they students wrote 4 facts of what they learned about Columbus. 

Snowflake Angles

Another great Pinterest idea for my Geometry Unit! 

After learning about right, acute, and obtuse angles they students used popsicle sticks to create snowflakes. Each snowflake had to have each kind of angle. 

They were SO excited to take them home. 

Also fun decorations for Christmas/Winter! 

Lines of Symmetry

I had so much fun teaching my 3rd grade Geometry unit this year! I was able to find so many great ideas off of pinterest. 

My students had fun creating symmetrical objects with a definite line of symmetry. They were sad when I said they had to stop for recess. :)
