A Too Cold Tuesday!
It sure was cold outside today! Please make sure that your child remembers hats and gloves each day.
Today in Language Arts we reviewed digraphs, consonant clusters, vocabulary, and phonics rules during Triumphs, and listened to most of our presentations. We only have 4 more presentations to go! I am so pleased with the confidence of each speaker. They definitely are better prepared this time around.
In Math we are finally finished up with the CRT. (Almost everyone).We also worked in small groups with algebra concepts. The students were so excited to see that they can really work through some harder problems. We also had time to play a "I have... Who has..." game. This reviewed mental math dealing with division.
In Social Studies we ended our rotation with a review game of all of Chapter 2. It dealt with vocabulary, concepts, famous people, and skills. They students did an amazing job answering the questions. It was clear that they retained much of the information from Chapter 2. During the last few minutes of class, I gave them an overview of Chapter 3. They are excited that we will be discussing The American Revolution- a topic that they have heard of before. New rotations will start right after winter break. I will have my homeroom class at that time.
