Happy Birthday Karolina!!
FYI: Reminder: Students will be able to wear their Halloween costumes all day on Monday, Oct. 31st! Students are allowed to wear masks but are not permitted to have any weapons. Our schedule will be regular academics in the morning and Halloween celebrations in the afternoon. Students may bring in a treat (preferably healthy treats such as fruit, veggies, meat/cheese, crackers etc.) with a few bringing in something sweet. If you could let me know what you would like to bring in (through your son/daughter) by tomorrow that would be great. Of course, this is optional. Halloween dance tonight! Have fun and remember that the normal school rules apply. Today we started the day in Phys. Ed., enjoying a warm up game of keep away with the soccer ball before playing red light, green light with the soccer balls. After reviewing some rules, we finished our gym class with a game of soccer. In language arts, we discussed ways we can start our stories to make them more exciting for our readers. We discussed using strategies such as starting with an action, sound, dialogue or a thought/feeling. After sharing some examples, we had a scavenger hunt to look find examples of those strategies in books around the classroom. Ask me which strategy I find the most effective. After recess, we read a chapter in Wonder, from the perspective of Justin. Ask me about Justin's initial reaction to August. Next we had math groups. In Ms. Parent's group, we discussed the "Share the String" pattern problem and discussed how the rule would help us to predict the number of people we could share with after each cut without having to use string. We also worked on another problem called Find the Sums. Ask me if I found the rule and how I could use it to solve the numbers in the output column. After lunch, we had DEAR time and then discussed ways to alter the story beginning that Ms. Tammy gave us before going to Music. We went to library after music and ended our day with a classroom cleanup and some cupcakes that Karolina brought in for her birthday! Yummy!!
