Okay...we are getting somewhere....

Today, in math, we reviewed rounding to the tens column. There is a worksheet for homework.

During the reading block, students read a book, assigned by me and determined by their reading data. Then they diagrammed the plot of the book in their reading logs. They also read Time for Kids and chose an article to use to complete a worksheet. Finally, they learned the letters u, w and e in cursive. The students were VERY productive and I was proud of them. It also allowed me to met with reading groups. Some children will be bringing home books and/or flashcards to practice reading tonight. Please ask them about the plot of their book.

After lunch and recess we will make a list of possible entries for their writer's notebook. I will also share some of their peers' writing that uses good sensory images. AND...I will hand back their graded writing assignment.

Then we will read and discuss an article called Nutshell Economics.

Remember....Thursday night is Math Game Night and Friday is an early release day. The students will be dismissed at 1:00.
