Sorry for the delayed posting.
Today Ms. Jean lead the opening activities and talked about the importance of voting and explained why the gym was closed today. Mr. Costa took the class to the Library since Gym was closed for polling.
After recess we worked on Math activities. We are continuing with similar strands to last week. We are looking at number patterns in more detail this week.
After lunch, we did writing workshop. We are still exploring descriptive paragraphs. So we drew a haunted house in pencil. After our sketch was complete we started our rough copy. We started with a good topic sentence. Our goal is to use good sentences and precise words to help readers get a better picture in their mind about what the haunted house is like. We finished reading our novel so I asked students to do a reading response using the retell, relate, reflect guide from our response notebooks.
After recess we had our Spelling test. We then started Lesson 7 with words from the text.
HOMEWORK: Spelling:Complete copying words, alphabetical order and syllables.
