Another good day so far...
We started off the day by talking about what makes a good partner and what makes a 'not-so-good' partner. We came up with some great ideas.
Then we read a couple of awesome chapters of The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight. Then we had some independent reading time.
After that we started our Writer's workshop...we looked closely at what makes R.L. Stine's writing so interesting. We were so in to our writing, that I lost track of time and the bell rang before our Author's Chair.
So after nutrition break, we had Grayson, Lara and Melissa share their wonderful writing.
We did a number talk then talked about 2 digit addition. I let kids choose their worksheet (easy, medium and hard...).
Quite a few kids are struggling with re-grouping...might not be a bad idea to practise this with your children at home if you notice them having trouble.
Period 4 Mrs. Smith came in for social studies.
Period 5 Mrs. Djononvich had the kids for music.
Period 6 We'll be finishing up some math.
REMINDER -Tomorrow we're on our field trip all day to Kelso conservation area for the Halton Water Festival. Please make sure your kids are prepared to be outside all day (hats, sunscreen, lunch). Also, tomorrow night is open house from 6 - 7:30...so I apologize in advance for the state of my room!
