October 16th *updated*

I got to school a little early today, so I'll attempt to do one of my 'predictive posts' that usually doesn't turn out the way I planned!

We'll start period 1 with a coloured-square subtraction 'red-light' activity.  Then we'll have a quick circle, and read a bit of Despereaux.  We'll have some independent reading time and we're going to discuss 'talking about our reading'.

Period 2 we'll do our 'writer's workshop' and today's mini lesson will focus on using quotation marks when someone is speaking.

Period 3 the Grade 3's are going to go to the library with Mrs. Pauls...I believe they'll be working on their 'my blueprint'.  The Grade 4's are going to do round 1 of the 'Cognitive Abilities Test' with me in our room.

Period 4 we're going to do some math.  We'll be reviewing the 'standard algorithm' for subtracting numbers.  I've put together easy/medium/hard worksheets...



Period 5 we'll try and do the art that we didn't get to yesterday.

Period 6 Mrs. Haynes has them for music.

Here is the second take of Island In the Sun the kids did yesterday...much better we all agree.

AND FINALLY...reminder:  Grade 3's are off to Angela Coughlan Pool on Thursday for our first (of 3) swim to survive lessons!

***UPDATE...picture day took a lot longer than I had planned...most of Period 4.  Mrs. Haynes wasn't able to teach the kids last period, so they stayed here and continued to work on their art!
