- Journal: What did you think of the Discovery Gateway presentations yesterday?
- English - Adjective or Adverb?: pg 253 (1-18). Adjectives describe nouns, adverbs (which often end in ly) describe verbs. I made a copy of the proofreading section so students could just write in the corrections.
- Computers - studyisland.com. This can be a great resource to help students prepare for the end-of-year testing, please encourage your child to practice on it from time to time.
- Spelling: Spelling Spree worksheet pg 110
- Reading - Students were each given a short story and instructed to make a prediction, and ask a couple of questions as they read the story. When they finished the story they were to state the main idea in one or two sentences and give three details from the story, in order.
- Math - Symmetry: Lesson 105 test tomorrow - Please review topics from lessons 96-100 to review for the test.
- Science
- P.E.
- Social Studies - This was the last day we spent class time working on the preamble booklets. Several students handed the assignment in today. Please check with your child to see how their book is coming along. Please let me know if you would like me to keep him/her in from recess to spend time working on it.
I don't know how they did it, but with 18 hits at my enlarged Battleship grid, the students were able to sink all 5 ships today. Maybe my placement of the ships is too predictable, or they need an even larger grid. Anyway, the next reward they chose was an extra P.E. I might be able to fit that in tomorrow or Friday. They are slowly but surely earning battleship marks because several times throughout the day their behavior is great.
