Reminder: all missing score assignments are due on 12/21/10!
**Many thanks to our parent Christmas story readers this week!!**
Reading: We continued questioning and worked on creating an answer to one of our questions about the "Mary Celeste." Students wrote a story, illustrated it and presented to the class. Many of the stories were very creative! Be sure to ask your student to share his/her story. All students should be finished up with their book group books. If not, they need to be reading this at home and bringing it back daily.
Spelling/Vocabulary: Test was today. Please make sure to be studying your vocabulary words for our unit test--it comes up faster than you think! We'll take a break from Spelling this next week and start up again after the break.
Writing: We had some more time to type up our Personal Narratives. We've run into a problem with the printer (it's broken) and unfortunately we won't be able to have our stories printed until it is fixed. We wrote about our favorite Christmases and enjoyed making a "Grumpy" page for our class book.
Math: We are finishing up our gardens this week. The students have been working very hard on their artwork and it is looking beautiful! Look for these hanging in the halls after break. In January we will begin working on multiplying and dividing fractions.
Social Studies: The students have been preparing some "plays" about Greek Myths. It has been a fun way for them to learn some of the myths that we haven't had a chance to discuss in class.
Science: We were excited to get rid of the moldy bread as it started to make our classroom stink. Viliami and Niki were some of our Moldy Bread winners.
