Tiptoe Tuesday

When I was a kid, probably around 3rd grade, we had names for each day of the school week. Monday was "Mellow Monday." Tuesday was "Tiptoe Tuesday." Wednesday was "Wacky Wednesday." Thursday was "Thrilling Thursday," and Friday was "French Fry Friday." On Tuesday, we tried to walk everywhere on our tiptoes. It was hard and probably drove our teachers crazy. Also, I bet I had terribly tired toes by the time I was finished. On this Tiptoe Tuesday, we are going to work on time, money, pronouns, sentence writing, and fact families. All good stuff. Let's get started.

If you would like a little more help with pronouns, here is a video. I think it is excellent.

Our new story this week is called "From Seed to Plant." It is all about growing seeds. Click ThinkCentral to read the story. 

It is almost time for seeds to start growing here. Have you ever planted a seed? Here is a science experiment you can do at home to see how plants grow. You will need a sandwich size zip close bag; wet paper towel, and some seeds. Bean seeds work best. 

And finally, Mystery Doug has a great science lesson on plants and how they grow. Click here for that.

Have a great day!
