Good afternoon to all my students and their families! Today started with a summer crossword, and then we went on to RW, where we read the second last chapter of Charlotte's Web. Today's reading was quite a serious topic and one that hit close to home for a few students in our class as it was about death and dying. We talked about how that made us felt, how the characters would have felt, etc.
Then it was on to Spelling, and we did Unit 32 this week. The memory verse, 1 Peter 3:18, is our last of the year, and will be assessed June 19. There will be a Spelling test in Friday this week.
We enjoyed the glorious weather outside for DPA, and then it was recess.
Math was the subject the kids started in on for the second half of their morning, and the 3's carried on with review while the 4's continued practicing long division. Then the class had a practice for awards night, which used up all of our writing workshop. This led to the poetry webquest being bumped to Wednesday because we didn't have time to work on it today. The Math class will now be Thursday.
After lunch we had Science and we learned what an idiom was (hooray for cross curricular instruction!). We did some work with weather idioms, so be sure to ask your child for an example of one.
The day concluded with chapel led by Mrs. Bloch.
