Agendas/Morning Meeting

Gym: Please see Mr. Beresford's blog for more information.

Language: We continued reading our novel "The Little House in the Big Woods" by Laura Ingalls Wilder. We read chapter 8 now! We did a paragraph writing activity afterwards to reinforce the concept of proper paragraph writing. The students had to choose a topic, brainstorm 3 supporting ideas, write a topic and closing sentence and then write out their paragraph. We spoke about how it’s important to include detail such as more examples and adjectives in our writing. We also needed a reminder to include capital letters and proper punctuation.

Recess/Lunch

Math:. Today we multiplying by 3 and 4s! We working together to figure out the multiples of both numbers. The students had an in class worksheet as practice and we took it up as a class.





I would suggest that you practice your multiplications at home. The best way to do this is flashcards. They can be printed off this website: http://www.timvandevall.com/math/free-printable-multiplication-flash-cards-for-kids/




Extra Worksheets: If you would like more practice!


 

Recess/Lunch

UOI: Today we wrote formal letter invitations to Grandpa’s Dance. This activity was based on the chapter in our novel studies book that we read today. The letter had to include: where the party was being held, what will they be doing, what will they be eating and what should they wear. It had to be in a letter format (with who it is to and who it is from) and had to be as polite as possible because it was a formal letter.
