Monday, October 22, 2012

It was a cloudy and gray day outside, but lots of learning took place inside room 310 today! This morning we took a pretest on Geometry. We talked about some of the new activities in our BUILD math centers. Geometry has lots of new vocabulary for us to learn. This afternoon we discussed features of nonfiction texts. We did a partner scavenger hunt through a book to see what features we could find. After we celebrated Ty's birthday with a special treat, we went back to the text features. This time we each got our own book. We looked for three features in our own books. We identified the feature, illustrated it, and wrote it's purpose.

Reminders:
  • Conferences will take place on Wednesday evening. Reminders were sent home today. If any conflicts should arise, please let me know as soon as possible, so other arrangements can be made.
  • Wednesday we will be walking to City Hall. Students should dress appropriately for the weather and the walk.
  • We do NOT have spelling words this week.
