Mrs. Yollis' Field Trip Photos: Chumash Center

Mrs. Yollis promised to share all the photos she took from the field trip today to our local Chumash Interpretive Center. The Chumash are the historic local Native American tribe.

If you would like to do a blog post about the trip, you may used the photos. Please remember to credit the photos to Mrs. Yollis. (You do not need to credit each one, a one sentence credit at the bottom of your post will do.)
Drag the photos you would like to use on to your desktop. You can upload them from there. Use the "insert image" icon to load them, and you can add a caption. Remember, do NOT just copy information from the museum charts. Put it in your own words. Use your own adjectives!



















































Please let Mrs. Yollis know when your post is ready!





What facts would you like included in a Chumash post?

Please share!

Let's Visit Our Blogging Buddies: Meet Mrs. Yollis' Class

Mrs. Yollis' class enjoys sharing and learning with other classes. This year, they are QUAD buddies with three other classes! 






These classes read about Quad blogging from Mr. Mitchell. The concept:  four blogging classes come together and learn about one another one week at a time. The alliance will help each class increase their readership while flattening their classroom walls and learning about the wonderful world we live in.


This week, let's meet Mrs. Yollis' third graders from California! We are a group of 11 girls and 12 boys!

Lines: Intersecting or Parallel?

In geometry, we are learning that lines can be parallel or they can intersect.

 

line

 A line is a straight path extending in both directions with no endpoints.


Lines that never cross and are always the same distance apart are parallel. 

  
Lines that cross are called intersecting.
Can you tell the difference?
