WHAT'S FOR HOMEWORK?

Mrs.Forseth wants the whole class to pass their 4's before Spring Break! She wants this beacause your 4`s are your ice cream and she said this "you don`t want to be stitting there with a bowl full of sprinkles!" Some of the kids replied "I am fine with having a bowl FULL of sprinkles." She gave us a paper with facts on it from the 4`s. She gave us 3 websites and LOTS OF FACTS! That is our only homework, besides reading, this week. We can do it!

The Machine!

Hello, I'm R your new blogger. We are learning about mostly math [ Mrs.Forseth loves math more than ice cream cakes.] In math on January 18th 2012 we learned about the machine it is a nasty mean number machine. You have to figure out if the machine used addition,subtraction, multiplication, or division to make a new number. It is really hard, take from us! What do you think about the number machine?

Can you find two snowflakes that are alike?

Today our class went outside to observe snowflakes. We caught them on black construction paper and compared them. It was cold, but it was FUN!

We're not the only ones who think snowflakes are interesting! Years ago there was a man named Wilson Bentley who loved to observe snowflakes, too. He took photographs of over 2,400 snow crystal images and published them in a book. And guess what! He concluded that "no two snowflakes are alike". There is even a Caldecott Award winning picture book about his life. Maybe we will read it this week.

My cousin-in-law Chris Roberts took this picture of a snowflake today. Look closely to see the details. Why do you think people like to observe snowflakes? Can we learn anything from them? Tell me what you think!
