Septemer 4, 2013 Day 5-Week 2

Day 5 - Week 2

Happy Wednesday!!  

Thank you so much for the twenty families that were able to make it to last night’s Back to School night.   

Regarding today:
We are working on math assessments and language art assessment during the first of the morning. This is to give us a uniformed baseline regarding where are students are after summer break.  

Maniac Magee -- today we learned more about the exploits of Maniac.  The most intense chapter was the showdown between Maniac and McNab.  Ask your son/daughter to explain how a frog played a roll in the game.  

Math -- more review on decimals and place values.  Specifically tenths (1/10), hundredths (1/100) and thousandths (1/1000).  
We had a 2nd quiz today post lesson.  The biggest challenge for students is to remember to line up those decimals points.  You will see example from our notes today.  

Singing w/ Ms. Jones -- rumor on the street is that the class treated her with more respect than last week.  

We did a nice writing art project after lunch.  (more examples below)


We ended the day doing more team building notecards where we share about ourselves and to guess who is sharing.
