5.   Get your act together: work better or leave
6.   Go back to the drawing board: start over

We began the day taking up our math homework from last night and then wrote a mid-unit review to show Ms. Jaskolka our understanding of our current unit thus far. 

We then got into our literature circles and fulfilled our specific roles within our groups for The City of Ember. Ms. Jaskolka will sit with one group every day and take part in our literature circles and observe each of us in our roles. There were so many dynamic conversations today based on the novel! Students then began reading chapter 2 and fulfilling their next role. 






After first recess and lunch we had French.

Then Surkhab shared action about batteries and how opposite sides of a battery need to be together in order for the circuit to flow:

We then discussed and watched videos about electrical safety. It is so important that we understand electrical safety so that we can keep ourselves and those around us safe. Students can continue to watch these videos on electrical safety and tomorrow we will create posters encouraging and teaching others how to be safe with electricity.











At the end of the day we had physical education.

1. Read Daily
2. mid unit review for math (most finished in class)
