We began the day with a super fun game where students were bowling using paper cups! J

We came to class and continued reading Chocolate Fever; we read chapter 4 and 5. Henry’s brown spots began to pop and get bigger!! He had to go to the doctor who did some tests and found out that the spots were chocolate! We then created a book cover titled “Is there a cure for ______ (our choice of food) fever.” After, we drew ourselves with the “fever” on the book cover.

During UOI, we read The Three R’s: Reuse (to use less of something; using very little, only what is needed), Reduce (to use something over again), Recycle ( take old discarded (thrown away) materials and make new products out of them). We learned more ways of how to do each one and why it is important. We then defined each word for our Earth Day lap book. We also defined environment, conserve, and compost.

After we had Math. Students chose 4 books and they measured the height of each one using pencils, paperclips, or erasers. After, they ordered the books by height, length, and then width.

After first recess and lunch, students had French. When students returned, they wrote their homework in their agendas and then completed any unfinished work.

After second recess and lunch, we reviewed how to write a proper paragraph. A paragraph needs to have a topic sentence and at least three detail sentences. Students then copied down a full paragraph.

At the end of the day, students finished their circle trees. They look great!

1.     Read for 20 minutes

If each student can raise at least 35 dollars, then we can all go bowling next Friday J
