Healthy Habits and the Five Senses!

This week the theme was Healthy Habits and the Five Senses! Our surprise box was filled with different things we could hear, taste, smell, and feel each day. We added clues to our paper by using these four senses. We finally used our fifth sense when saw what was really in the surprise box! Be sure to check out our class book entitled "What is in the Surprise Box?" We also learned how to use our five senses while reading by painting a picture in our mind. We imagine ourselves as the character and share what we see, hear, taste, smell, and feel. We held up magic paint brushes on popsicle sticks to share our paintings in our mind during reading. Then we added our thoughts to our five senses chart. Check out how we explored our five senses further in our pictures!
Our poem of the week was:

Painting Pictures In My Mind:

When my teacher
Reads a book
Then my mind begins to look
Painting pictures in my head
As the story's being read
Painting pictures
Me and You!

Happy Valentines Day!
