Merry Monday to all of you!  After a super busy weekend running around with my family, I was happy to be back in the classroom today, following a structured routine!

1. Opening exercises - we did 2 and 3 digit addition today.  Most children seem to have a solid grasp on this, but many continue to struggle with speed.  Please continue working on Math facts (via Xtra Math) at home
2. Spelling - Unit 16, and memory verse Psalm 98:6 this week.  
3. R.W. - we had independent reading and then I read to the children
4. Math - we worked on mental math.  I find it interesting that most of the children find it easier to do the regular addition than to do mental math, but at least they have some strategies now.
5. P.E. - with Mr. Banman
6. S.S. - we finished our community projects
7. Chapel - Mrs. Hills led
