Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring!

Even though it still looks like winter here, we are excited to say goodbye to winter and hello to spring! We worked together to write a poem. After we wrote the poem, we re-read it and decided to make some changes. We tried to add some juicy words so that our readers could get a picture in their minds.

The words in pink are the changes we made.

When we were finished, we were so proud that we decided to make our poem into a movie. Enjoy!

3 Star Drawings

Today we talked about making really great drawings. We looked at four different drawings and talked about what we noticed about each of them. Then we gave each of the drawings 0-3 stars based on what we noticed.

0 Stars = Scribbles

Nothing

1Star = We can tell what it is

1 Colour

Some scribbles

Not many details

2 Stars = We can tell what it is

No scribbles

More details

3 Stars = Lots of details

Many colours

After we were done, we all practiced making 3 star drawings!
