Thrilling Thursday!

Another great day here in room 25!

LA: Thursdays are our other short days of the week due to double specials. Today we had our DEAR/Triumphs time and then got to practice using great word choice in our writing. We had fun exploring different ways to say ordinary words by playing a form of Taboo! Everyone had a great time!

*A special note: Snacks are getting a bit out of control! Please remember to send in one healthy snack with your child. We've had everything from cookies, to doritos to a buffet of 4 kinds of cereal. This is just meant to tide them over, not fill their bellies! :)

HW: Our spelling test is tomorrow. Fluency and Flow is also due tomorrow. Students should be bringing home a small yellow rectangle shaped paper today from Highlights Magazine. Please take a moment to fill this out, even if you aren't interested in receiving this publication. Our classroom will receive free items based on the amount of slips returned, even if they are no thank yous!

Math: We reviewed everything we have worked on so far this year today. In addition, we took a quiz over specific topics. Although I graded the quizzes, they were not entered. We went over these in class and reviewed again.

HW: Math boxes 1.7. Test over unit 1 will be given on Wednesday!

Health: Today we reviewed the vocab words from yesterdays section 1. We also read through section 2 together, carefully going over the vocabulary from this section as well.

HW: Questions 1-4 on page 25 need to be completed.

Happy Belated Birthday, Alexis! So sorry I missed it on here yesterday!
