Since both of our classes have blogs, we’re going be having a competition with Mrs. Jacobs’ class. In order to get ready, we practiced working on thinking questions with a partner. We had to think of as many things as possible that are or can be white. Many children thought of similar ideas but there were also a ton of really interesting and unique responses. Look for them to be posted on the blog. Kids, feel free to add new ideas in the comments section!
Today we got to play Pig during math.
Ms. Stern had to go to a meeting for a little while. The class played against the substitute. We won! (We hogged our turns!) The score is now 2-2. Afterwards, got to choose partners or groups. Michael played against Ms. Stern. He won!
We finished our secret project in art today. We had lots of fun making them. Some people thought it was easier to do than it looked. Our next project is going to be making a landscape using Q-tips and paint.
During Writer’s Workshop, we worked on our piece to be published. We looked for places in our writing where we told instead of showed. Mem taught us that good writers show so we fixed the spots where we forgot. We also started checking our work for spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. Just as we were about to get started, we heard lots of thunder and lightning. Some children got scared but we all got to work and the thunder and lightning stopped. Next week we will continue to edit and fancy up. Our Mem Fox Writer’s Celebration will take place on Monday, April 20 at 2:00 p.m. Parents are invited to attend!
Have a great weekend!
