What a wonderful Wednesday it is!
We began the day with RW, and the Guided Reading groups that haven't finished their novel studies worked on those while the others had Independent Reading. Then it was on to WW, and we continued our work with fractured fairytales. The children read a couple more, and afterwards we headed off to the lab to start story mapping our own. Everything takes longer in the lab, due to technological glitches and so many questions, but we did get a start on our character maps (a few even finished). Be sure to ask your child which fairy tale he or she has chosen to fracture, and what element they're going to change (character, setting, conflict or resolution).
Following recess, the students had Math. The Grade 3's wrote their test on fractions, which came home tonight, and the 4's started subtracting decimals. I've encouraged the 4's to bring home their texts to review the fraction and decimal work we've done for their test on Friday.
The class then headed off to P.E. with Mr. Banman, as well as some catch up on late work time. It would be ideal to have everyone caught up before heading to spring break, as anything that is not complete will be brought home over the break. Hopefully nothing!
This afternoon we had S.S., and finished Ch. 6 in our textbook. Following the break we'll learn about the Europeans exploring North America and why they came this way.
Enjoy the weather everyone!
