Language Arts: We were busy this morning trying to make up for missing Monday. During reading, we discussed our new vocabulary for the week, listened to our story, and discussed the differences between coniferous and deciduous trees. During grammar time, we practiced identifying simple and compound sentences. In writing, we had time to work on our "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words" rough draft. Finally, during our computer lab time we worked on skills in Study Island and took our Accelerated Reader test over this weeks story.

Math: Today in math we completed our skill practice by completing the minute, worked on RIT skills/vocabulary during our computation time, and dove into Unit 2. Now that all the Unit 2 pretests are complete, I plan to divide the students into groups to work on necessary skill work. So far, Unit 2 looks like we can cover it in a short amount of time.
