October 23rd

Here is what we did today...

We started the day by coming up with our own addition and subtraction questions for red light (we'll answer them tomorrow).

Then we had a long discussion about conserving paper...and we as a class decided we needed 'sketch books' to help us organize our desks and save the 'fresh paper'.

Then I read a chapter of Despereaux.
Then we had independent reading while I did some guided reading.

Period 2 we had our writer's workshop, today's mini lesson was about 'backwards editing'.

Period 3 and 4 we started a 'learning skills self assessment'.  We looked at Responsibility and Organization.  Then we got to play subtraction games while I worked with a small group at the guided reading table.

Period 5 we packed our bags, emptied out our mailboxes...some subtraction work is coming home (doesn't need to be finished...but might be good to correct!!!).  I'm also sending home their super-amazing self portraits, because our super-amazing cubist trees are decorating our hallway now.

We had a bit of time to work on our STEM magnetic race tracks before they went to music.

Period 6 Mrs. Haynes has them for music. 

***This Thursday Grade 3's are off to the pool again for our second (of three) Swim to Survive lesson***
