April 25, 2014

Good afternoon families!

We began the day with devotions with Mrs. Everett, and then went on to our Spelling test.  The class did very well this week!  Afterwards we had RW, and we read another story in the reader.  The students are reading paragraphs out loud, which helps me to assess their ability to read orally. They also worked on Charlotte's Web for a while.

Following recess we had Math, and the class finished the work assigned by Mrs. Takeda yesterday.  Then we all went on to bar graphs, talking about the importance of a title, a straight X and Y axis (the Grade 3's simply refer to these as lines for now), labels for the axes, and a scale.

Then it was off to the computer lab to start publishing the fractured fairytales!  The students are learning the basics of word processing (saving, increasing font size, changing paragraph spacing to double, how to create a paragraph, etc.), while working on their keyboarding skills.

After lunch we had Science, and the class finished up their 'For Sale' posters for different weather tools.  Then we enjoyed some of the 'Planet Earth' video to finish up their time with me.  It was off to P.E. for the last block today.

I hope to see all of you at the Hoe-down tonight!
