November 6, 2014

Here`s the lowdown on today:

1. Opening Exercises - the class worked on a word search together
2. W.W. - we finished up (or nearly finished) our postcards to the veterans.  I`m hoping these will be done tomorrow and will mail them off asap.
3. Handwriting - the class finished work from previous weeks
4. Math - Grade 3 continued with their work on skip counting, starting from more challenging numbers (i.e. skip count from 323 by 4`s), and the 4`s worked on their multiplication facts, and how related facts can help them solve more difficult problems.  Some students were very distracted today in Math, so there has been homework assigned.  Most children are done, but if your child isn`t, it`s likely because they were busy socializing instead.  This also resulted in a desk change, as being in groups was just a bit too tempting for many of the students to visit instead of complete their work.
5. R.W. - We finished up Chapter 4 in The Chocolate Touch, and read Chapter 5 today as well.  We are almost done our read aloud too (ask your child what Fudge did today!)
6. P.E, - with Mr. Banman
7. R.W. - with Mr. Ediger
8. Chapel - Ms. Dyck led
