In English we started to read the Wizard of Oz and we brainstormed some words with a long E and short E vowel sound : bit/bite/ kit/kite and watched a video about how E at the end of words changing vowel sounds.

In French we read a book called 'Le Caillou Magique' about a Donkey who found a magic pebble and accidentally turned himself into a rock. 

In science we did an experiment with Starburst to show the different stages of The Rock Cycle. We had a lot of fun cutting them up into 'sediments', compressing them into sedimentary rocks and then adding pressure and heat to turn them into metamorphic rocks. M. Richardson then melted one into 'lava'.

We continued to share our photos and objects which we hope to continue tomorrow.

Ask me:
For some examples of long and short vowel sounds using the letter E.
