Thursday May 7th

Apparently I forgot to blog yesterday...that's twice in one week I've forgotten.  Yikes.  I'm not going to lie, the chaos of our school musical has invaded every facet of school...and my brain.  My apologies.  Yesterday was a little crazy, but we did rehearse and perform several times.....

Today it seems like a lot of us are still pretty 'amped up' from last nights performance.

Here is what we're doing (or have done).

Period 1 - Red light, Read aloud (new book, Holes).  We did a reader's workshop on the importance of setting.
Period 2 was writing, we continued to work on our slideshows...we're finally getting some finished products...hopefully next week we can begin to present.

Period 3 we stayed outside for a bit, when we came in, we got to play with the gifts Mr. Hummel made for us on his 3D printer for 'May the 4th' day.  
Period 4 is music with Mrs. Haynes.

Period 5 we have computer buddies.  We're going to have computer buddies with the Grade 1's.  We're going to help them work on their 'community helper' slideshows.
Period 6 I have to go to a meeting but I have put on 3 questions from Knowledgehook.  Then they'll have more time to work on their slideshows...and if Mrs. D wants to at the end, reward them with some free time...I'll leave that in her capable hands.
