We hope you're feeling better! January 19th  

Posted in , ,

This morning, we reviewed our spelling words by completing a complicated story puzzle called "They're, Their, and There".  We will send the story home to you.  Try to fill in the blanks from the story with the appropriate they're, their, or there.

We also completed math boxes on page 129 before the math lesson on lines.  Click each of the pictures below to learn about lines.

OR you can sing karaoke!

 

This afternoon, we will have rotation.  Students were assigned a job to do while reading in their Dan Gutman books.  The pages to read are:

Million Dollar Kick:  pages 105-131
Babe and Me: pages 105-129
Get Rich Quick Club: pages 85-106

I will be sure to send home your literature circle job for the selection.

During Seatwork, students completed another Grandparents' Day project.  You can work on that when you return to school.

When students worked with me, we wrote thank you letters to the author who visited us in the library yesterday, Robin Gonzalez.


We also spent time working on a story of your choice.  You could be finishing:

*The story about animals that have special powers after midnight...
OR
*The story about a household accident that goes horribly wrong (like Tub-boo-boo).

We will continue to write these (and edit) until they are polished and ready for scoring on the Ideas and Organization rubrics.

At the end of the day, we will visit Mrs. Driscoll in the lab.  She has something new for us to learn today since our videos are finally all complete!  Yahoo!  We'll let you know tomorrow what it was she had in store for us.

We hope you are feeling better!  Come back soon!
Mrs. Neal and Mrs. Haneke
