Don't forget, Giving Tree items are due tomorrow. We are over 50 gifts short of the stars that were taken from the tree!
Language Arts: Unfortunately, we did not have the best behavior in music, therefore we had to spend quite a bit of time reviewing STAR behavior and writing a letter of apology to Mrs. Wehrly. We also took the quiz over chapters 6-8 and then moved on to chapter 9 before the end of the morning.
HW: Finish comprehension questions and vocabulary from chapter 9. Make sure the activity from chapters 7-8 is complete as well as the letter to Mrs. Wirth.
Math: We spent quite a bit of time reviewing past concepts and then moved into long division today. Students were given a lot of work time to work on the following: Journal pages 144-146, 166-167 and math boxes 6.3 and 6.10, as well as study link 6.3 and 6.10. It is all work that is due tomorrow.
Social Studies: Content 1--we took the chapter 6 test today.
HW: None

Monday, December 10
It finally feels like December, as I look out the window and see the first snowflakes starting to fall...
Language Arts: We worked our way through chapters 7-8 in our novel study, Frindle. I'm so pleased the students seem to be enjoying the book so much. We are having a fantastic time going through each page, word by word, and finding excellent examples of figurative language. Since these books are for keeps, we're even marking them up! Gasp! :)
We're continuing to work on the You're The Teacher grammar pages. This is great practice in proofreading work.
HW: Finish chapter 7-8 comprehension questions, venturing into vocabulary words and the character cop entry for Mrs. Granger.
Math: We started in on unit 6 today. Our focus was multiplication and division number stories, as well as starting to explore different strategies to figure out division of bigger numbers. This will be a short chapter, with a test already planned for next Wednesday. The students received a study guide today in preparation.
HW: Finish journal page 140, math boxes 6.1 and 6.2, as well as study links 6.1 and 6.2 are due tomorrow.
Social Studies: (Content 2) We had our test over chapter 6.
HW: None
