Zoo Outreach--Animal Classification

1/18/2013

9 Comments

We had a visit from the Zoo Outreach program this week! We learned all about animal classification, and we even got to see and touch 2 animals: an African Gray Hornbill and a baby alligator! Of course this happened to be the day when I forgot my camera at home, so we are borrowing pictures from Mrs. Lance's class. :) We can't wait until February when Zoo Outreach comes back to teach us about animal adaptations!

1-2-3 Rule

1/18/2013

2 Comments

This week we learned a new rule for adding -ed and -ing to base words. Check out the video to see a demo! To add a little more explanation to what the demo shows, we try the 1-2-3 rule whenever a word ends with a consonant letter, such as "chop" or "run." The exceptions are when the consonant is used to make a new vowel sound, such as "play" or "draw." Because the y and w are acting as part of the vowel sound, we will not double those letters before adding a suffix. We call these words "rule breakers!"
