Fabulous Friday

This morning we visited Clarksburg High School to view the first act of the play, The Little Mermaid.  It was a real treat!!  We all enjoyed the wonderful performance and the children were very well behaved!  :-)

When we returned to school it was time for outdoor recess and lunch.

After lunch, the students returned to the classroom and we watched a video to learn about the Pennies for Patients program which the school will be participating in next week.

Next we changed classroom jobs.

Then the students took a multiplication facts formative.

After that the children had a chance to finish publishing and illustrating their realistic fiction picture books.  Then we shared the responsible financial decision making trees that they completed in small groups on Tuesday.

Next we shared homework writing journals.

Finally, we ended the day with our weekly class meeting.  First students had the chance to share what was on their minds.  Then we exchanged thank yous and compliments.   After that we continued our study of the growth mind set.  We watched a Go Noodle lesson about neurons and how our brains work.  We learned that when we learn something new, which at the time is a challenge, our neurons make connections in our brains.  Things becoming easier as these connections are made.

Have a great weekend!
