Singular to Plural

Today Ms. Strum reviewed with us the rules for changing a singular noun to a plural noun. Ms. Strum divided into groups. We were each given six to eight singular nouns. Ms. Strum told us that we would work with our group and determine what rule we would use to change the noun from a singular to a plural noun.
Andrew and Kerronta hard at work!
Ms. Strum told us to write our singular nouns on the sentence strips provided. We glued these words on the singular noun side of the construction paper. With our group, we looked at the singular noun and determined what rule we would follow to change it to a plural noun. We wrote the plural form of the noun on the sentence strip and glue it beside the singular noun. Ms. Strum had us write on the plural noun sentence strip what rule we followed, and what we changed.
Working together to finish our work!

Our Field Trip to the Symphony

Keosha and LaQuisha ready to go!
Today we went on our 1st Field Trip! We went to a very special building to hear the Mississippi Symphony Orchestra. All of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students were able to go! It was a great experience.
Ready for our field trip!

What excitement! We are now ready to hear the Symphony perform! We went into the hall to find our seats. The Symphony came onto the stage. They told us that they were going to take us on a trip around the world. As you can tell in the pictures below, there are suitcases on the stage. Random students in the audience were able to pick a numbered suitcase. They had music to play for every place that we went! It was a great experience.
