Fantastic Friday!

We began the day doing a spelling test and then working in our cursive books.

After students had physical education with Ms. Lovan.

When students returned we learned about estimating in math. We looked at a big picture of a squirrel collecting nuts for the winter. We first estimated how many we thought there were and then we counted by 5’s to see if we were correct. Next, we were given either markers or counting cubes and estimated how many there were and then counted the items by grouping them. We were counting by 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s today. Students also completed 2 pages in their Math workbooks.





Afterwards we made Japan posters. We brought pictures of five features of Japan (food, shelter, transportation, leisure and clothing) and we made travel posters.














After first recess and lunch, students had French.

When students returned they wrote their homework in their agendas and then finished working on their Japan posters.







After second recess and lunch we worked on how to write and put together proper sentences. Students were each given broken up sentence strips and needed to figure out how to put the sentences back together. Students needed to make sure there was a capital at the beginning, a period at the end, and also reading it over to make sure the sentence makes sense. Students were also given a noun, verb, and adjective chart to fill in as they put their sentences together.













Homework:

1.     Spelling test signed
2.     Read for 20 minutes. Students are to pick a book based on the I “pick” strategy 





Students also can practice the three ways we learned to read a book during Daily 5.




Have a great weekend!!
