This week is Spirit Week!!!!!!!!
Tuesday is P.J. Day, Wednesday is Crazy Hair Day, Thursday is Hats & Glasses day & Friday is Sports Jersey Day. In class we are working on spelling, we have a test every Monday & Friday Monday is a spelling pre-test & Friday is a spelling post-test.
This week is the final week of Jump Rope for Heart, I hope you parents have helped your kids turn their forms in. We have been working on a play for the past week, it is called D.C. Riddle Rally, it is about kids trying to figure out riddles about historic monuments in Washington D.C.
In calendar we have been working on elapsed time on a clock. We have been looking at patterns & making predictions about about the next calendar card. In geography we have been studying mountains, lakes and rivers. We have been using computers to search for facts about lakes & rivers.
Then we get into are travel groups which are divided equally into six groups, then we combine are facts to complete a poster. When we're done we each get assigned a lake and write a postcard with a picture on the back to a random person.
We are reading a book called SoYou Want To Be President. It's about the president's job & what he does. Some presidents liked their jobs and others didn't, some said it was the worst four years of their life. In the book it tells you facts about the characters such as who was the tallest president & who was the shortest. This week we have read short books to inform us about the government & equal rights. Each group has a different book that is about government.
In math we are working on eights which is for quick facts. We do all this work in class and we also practice our focus facts which we have been working on for a week and will keep practicing it through the next week also. Throughout the week classes have been taking a quiz on what we've learned so far.
