October 19th

Another good day almost done.  Happy Birthday to Violet.

I apologize for no post yesterday...I had to cover another class and didn't have my usual preparation period.  So I didn't have time to post.

Here is what today looks/ed like:

Period 1 We made birthday cards for Violet for Red Light.  Then we read a few chapters of The One And Only Ivan...which I really enjoy reading.  Then the kids did independent reading while I did guided reading with Gillian, Charlotte, Miliana and Lily.

Period 2 we looked at strong 'leads' from some mentor authors.  We discussed what made a strong lead, then we wrote one as a class.  Then the kids went to their desks for the quiet 10 and did some writing!

Period 3 we had Gym...we continued to work on our throwing and balance with a variety of games.

Period 4 we did a rotation of our Subtraction Centres.  Then we had to review that not every centre is going to be fun...and that sometimes at school we'll have to do work, not just the things we want to do.

Period 5 Mrs. Smith is teaching social studies.

Period 6 we're going to talk about goal setting and self reflecting for the progress reports.  Then we'll fill out this sheet as a class.  Any extra time will be used to finish up our Marc Chagall masterpieces...I hope.
