Here's what we did today.
Period 1 we read a bit from The One And Only Ivan...it's getting really good! We also did a little research on the up coming motion picture. Then we had some independent reading time. We discussed our letters. A quick survey of the class showed only 3 parents wrote letters to their kids over the holidays...there's still time. I'm asking everyone to bring back their reader's notebook by next week as we'll be starting letters again.
Period 2 we had our writer's workshop. We talked about varying the beginning of our sentences to keep our writing more interesting.
Period 3 we talked about elapsed time and how to use a time line to calculate it.
The Grade 3's tried the first 2 pages of these worksheet:
Elapsed Time Worksheet With Lots of Examples: To the Quarter Hour
The Grade 4's (and some of the Grade 3's) tried the first 2 pages of these worksheets:
Elapsed Time Worksheet: To 5 minutes
Might not be a bad idea to practise these some more at home? Some kids were a little 'stuck'.
That ended up going into period 4 too!
Period 5 we're going to relax a little....my brain still hurts. A little seatball, a little connect 4.
Period 6 Mrs. Haynes for music.
