It's Good To Be Back!

Whew! It's great to be back to school after such a long break! I was so sad the flu bug decided to visit this past weekend extending my stay away from my kiddos even longer! It was nice to see their smiles this morning and start hearing about their vacations!

LA: We had a great morning together, continuing on with our story from this week, Mystic Horse. We worked through a couple of spelling pages and then completed centers. We also had a nice time visiting with our reading buddies and preparing for our next production! We were a bit shocked at the empty stares we got when we were reciting nursery rhymes, to help us understand the humor in the new play! Something we need to work on!

HW: All completed center work is due tomorrow, first thing. The spelling test will be on Friday, along with the fluency and flow being due.

Math: We spent a day reviewing what we have learned thus far on fractions. We worked on fractions of a set and coloring a certain fraction amount of an object. After a bit of review, most students seemed to really get the grasp of this!

HW: Fraction review sheet is due tomorrow

Health: We took a break today to watch a video that we didn't have time for before Winter Break! It was great to learn about health topics from Mrs. Frizzle.

HW: None

Thanks for all the well wishes when I was out ill! I hope I'm back for good and have beat this bug! Happy belated birthday to Trenton, who celebrated his special day on Tuesday!

Things to watch for in blue folders tonight:
  • Northpoint newsletter
  • Market Day Order Form

Don' forget: All Science Expo forms were due to Ms. Grannan today, if you didn't get yours turned in, it needs to be brought tomorrow! There's no time like the present to begin working on those projects...I can't wait to see what our scientists have come up with!
