All students have a practice page for spelling and vocabulary. This program wouldn't let me copy and paste our word lists, so I will email a copy out tonight.
Some students are still finishing the cinquain poem. Students, make sure to do your final copy in pen and include a quality colorful picture. We have had parts of three class days to work on this, so it should be in the final stages.
The afternoon class had an additional assignment. I asked students a VERY broad question about how they use class time and I am looking for a paragraph (at least) answer. It has been a struggle to get focused in the afternoon for the majority of students (which is typical) and I am interested to see some things that students share. It will be a good conversation starter so that our class can problem solve and begin to use our time more effectively because we have so much good stuff to learn. There is no time to waste!
Book orders should arrive soon. We had a great turn out and the company gives us points for every order. We are working on getting some interesting books together for literature circles later in the year.
If you have embroidery floss that you aren't using we would love to take it off your hands. Please don't worry about going out and buying anything, though. We are doing a cool yarn painting project lead by Mrs. Roundy who just taught about Grandma Moses.

ReplyDeleteI just checked and my email shows it was sent to you. I don't mind sending it again, but I wonder if it went to junk mail? It is a mass email that I sent, so some systems might filter me out. Please let me know if you don't find it & I'll try again. :)
