Merry Monday everyone! :)
Today began with Reading Workshop, and we continued with our new novel, 'Holes', and then spent some time on the Literature Study project. The kids are working hard on whichever three of the fifteen options they chose, and I'm excited to see what their final project will look like!
Then we had our Spelling Pre-Test, which I had the children put into their planners, so look for it there, or here on the blog. Just 12 words for both grades this week.
We enjoyed a short game of floor hockey prior to a damp recess outside.
Following recess we had WW, and the students were introduced to their next writing assignment which is to create a class newspaper. They will be typing these, and we'll then compile them into one newspaper, which should be a great learning experience and loads of fun!
This was followed by Math. We're nearing the end of our Number Concepts unit (the 3's learned about how big 1000 is, and the 4's continued their subtraction with borrowing), which means a unit test will be sometime next week most likely. Your child has been asked to do his or her corrections and show me to ensure that they are right. If they have any trouble, they are welcome to come see me at recess, lunch, or before and after school.
After lunch we had Science and we finished our experiment with opaque, translucent and transparent materials, and then went on to make reflectometers. Ask your child what that is! :)
