Walking Stories due Friday

We took advantage of the beautiful day today and went out for gym, a fire drill and to collect earth materials for science.  We took a shovel (teaspoon) and collection bag (lunch bag) and went out looking for the things under our feet.  Yesterday we read the poem, Under Your Feet, and we will use it again tomorrow to sort the earth materials we found and compare them against the poem.

Students are bringing home their Mathletics login information so they can continue to practice math skills at home.  This is an excellent method for further development.  Some of us were logged on  this morning and began the Numbers to 1000 unit while others worked with me and were building numbers and adding 10 more.

Walking stories were handed in today.  Students who were not finished have brought them home for completion by Friday.  Your student should be able to tell you that a walking story is a descriptive piece of writing where each of the 5 boxes contains a different piece of information but nothing really happens in terms of a problem so it stays on a straight line.

We also have new reading material from the library to use for reading 20/10 tonight
