We started the day off in the Library with Mr. Brutto.
When we came back to class, we read the morning message and identified spelling errors in the message. We then reviewed the basic math operations adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. We used the same numbers and used different operations.
When we returned from recess we completed several activities that needed to be corrected or completed that were related to our unit on money. We will continue with money and now we will start adding and subtracting and making change. This would be something you could do at home as a review.
After recess several students had not completed their spelling, so they completed that, and other students worked on completing a description of the setting of the story they are going to write. Emmanuel came to the class and he talked about feelings and today reviewed the topic of pride. The students drew a picture of the time that they were proud.
After recess, we had a class meeting to discuss several issues we are having in the class. The main concern is not following instructions the first time they are given. We also talked about feelings as there have been several complaints from students about not being treated nicely by other students. We are also trying to get more success in homework completion. There are only about six students are consistent in completing their homework.
Starting next week, I am changing homework to include more reading and Math. We will do the Spelling in class since many students are able to finish the Spelling activities in one night.
I will be sending home new reading response activities, and also adding some math homework.
HOMEWORK: Reading Response
