What a great day!
Language Arts:
Today in Language Arts, we wrapped our skills for the week. We reviewed both complete sentences andsentence fragments as well as the four different kinds of sentences. We started our read a loud and were able to listen to two chapters.( The students were definitely interested in the friendly giant that we are reading about! )Finally, we were placed into three different groups to work on our leveled readers.
Homework:
***Study for the spelling test tomorrow. Be sure to know which list you are studying!

Math:
Today in math we reviewed all the skills presented earlier in the week and jumped into a few new ones. We worked on adding and subtracting decimals, multiplying a two digit number by a two digit number, finding the mean of a set of data, and the powers of ten with exponents. Since the students are whizzing through the skills this week,we are jumping into Journal 2 on Tuesday of next week. I know that I am excited and I think they are too!
Homework:
***Worksheet

Social Studies(Mrs. Doms' class)
***Today we were able to share our artifacts in groups. The students were able to discuss their artifacts within their group and explain which social scientist would be interested in each particular artifact. We learned an interesting fact that showed that some artifacts may be of interest to more than one scientist. Who knew?
Homework:
***The Chapter 1 test is scheduled for Mrs. Doms' class for next Friday, Sept. 3. It is a good idea to reread the chapter and look over the notes in the Interactive Student Notebook.
Until tomorrow...
