April 4, 2014

We had a fantastically fun Friday today, particularly because there were two special guests in our classroom!  Sarah and Parker (my children) joined us today as their school had a Pro-D day.

We began with devotions with Mrs. Everett, and then went on to our Spelling Test.  The class average was 94%, so everyone deserves a high five for that one!  Then we had RW, and today's was spent doing a variety of things.  First we had independent reading, then we read Ch. 12 from Charlotte's Web, and then I read aloud from The Hobbit.

Following recess we had Math, and the 3's continued their work with vertices, faces and edges of prisms and cylinders while the 4's went on to lines of symmetry, and how to find them with a mirror.  Then we headed down to the computer lab and tried out some educational games for a change (the following quote was heard while we were in the lab today: "FINALLY we get to do something FUN in computers!") :)

Thankful that the rain held off for recess and lunch today, the children came in, relatively dry, to enjoy a mentally challenging afternoon of art and P.E.  We did contour drawings in art today, where the students were paired with another and had to draw pictures of their partner without lifting their pencil.

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!  Remember we have our field trip Monday morning, so dress your children for the weather and send booster seats if necessary.
