Here is the first of many books our class will be publishing.
This story was written by Brianna.
Today we had a very special visitor. Annie, one of the characters from Brainpop Jr.com, came
to visit our class. We took her on a tour of our school and wrote stories about our adventures. In the next few
days, I will be sharing some of the stories the students wrote.

In writing, we have been learning to write descriptions. We used our five senses to describe apples. We made bubble maps describing apples. Then we used the maps to write descriptions of apples. Here are pictures of our writing.
Our class participated in an online project called the O.R.E.O. Project. Students from all over the country attempted to stack oreo cookies. Each child is given two attempts with the best attempt recorded. Students practiced counting and tallying. They also compared numbers and found the difference between the numbers. Our class average was 17 cookies. Jacob stacked the most with 23 cookies.
The students then made sculptures using the creme filling and the cookies. I was amazed at how creative the students were. Here is a slide show of their creations.
