We started off our week with RW, and continued reading aloud together from 'Henry and the Clubhouse'. I'm working with the students in class on their expression when reading out loud. Please encourage the same at home (that their questions actually sound like questions, etc.) for continuity. They then worked on some activities related to Chapter 5 from this book.
Afterwards we had our Spelling Pre-Test. No memory verse this week as it's a shorter week, but the children will be assessed on the first few books of the Bible (from Genesis to Eccl.), so please review this with them.
We enjoyed our usual game of soccer for DPA, and then after Recess we had WW. The students are doing the preliminary 'Explore' stage of their narrative writing. Ask them about some of the ideas they wrote down on their idea bank today (and even ask them about the foolish thing I did with ketchup a few days ago!).
Math came next, and the Gr. 3's worked with me on writing numbers in different ways by regrouping tens and hundreds. The 4's continued on with their work from Friday.
We had Science as our class after lunch and the kids had a BLAST doing our dissection...not of an animal, but of a phone! Ask them what makes the phone ring, how the dialing happens and what the parts all look like. The only thing we couldn't get undone was the microphone portion (none of us were strong enough!).
Mrs. Hills led chapel today, and Mrs. Everett led worship.
Enjoy these beautiful autumn days everyone! God bless!
