We have been invaded by aliens wearing underpants! !! We read the two books called Aliens Love Underpants and Aliens in Underpants Save the World. We discussed how these books are the same and different. Then they created aliens in Underpants and wrote about their aliens. They did an awesome job !!

The King of ing
We learned about the king of ing today. We made crowns and king of ings. The students lived wearing the king hat and making new words!
Flamingos!
We read the zoo mystery called Stickler On Stilts. I read to them the first three clues and then they had to think what the mystery animal was. They then drew what they thought. After we talked about what they thought it was, I read the rest of the book. They loved it!
We then made a can, have, are chart that I got from a unit by Kim Adsit!
The facts they remembered were awesome!
We then made our own flamingos! They came out really cute! !!
