Today we continued working on our individual math assessments, some children worked on handwriting while others worked on a current events assignment, and we finished our adjective project. This project required the students to create an image of themselves by coloring and decorating a body template. The students then created teams of three and took turns writing a descriptive word about themselves and the others in their group. Ms. Hines and I added the fourth descriptive word for each student. These should be on display by the end of the day.
We also continued to work on our Science Notebooks. We have been discussing how scientist observe and the ways that a scientist can record their findings. Yesterday the students used hand lenses to observe an apple, recorded their observations, and then shared them with the class. Today we will do the same thing with plants.
Our current read-a-loud is The Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl. We read from this book everyday.
Notes:
*Reading Bags and books should be returned daily.
*I am sending another book set of book orders home today. If you would like to order from them, please do so by next Wednesday. Remember to make checks out to Scholastic Book Clubs.
That is all for now. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Peace,
Tom
