May 20-23

Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend! Looks like a sunny week ahead and we have some fun stuff on the calendar!

Tuesday: We have the traveling art! The story is a real mystery. We will be adding to the plot and passing it on.

Wednesday: Staff Lunch. Many thanks to all who have volunteered to bring a dish, help set up, or supervise on this day. Also Wednesday is the Happiness Project. There will be games and activities outside planned by the grade 3s. Bring a book and looming.

Thursday is Yoga.

Friday 835am Assembly.

In the class...

ELA: Story writing, Storytelling, Daily 5... Spelling words this week are homophones.

Math: We have started doing Daily 5 math. The students are loving it! During each of the three rounds students have a choice of working on Math On their Own (in their fact booklets), using Technology (math links from the blog), and Math with a Partner (games).  We've learned two games so far: Domino Golf and Bones. In both games students work on addition and subtraction facts.

Science/Social: We are at the end of our Exploring Liquids unit. Before the break we set up an experiment to see how plants use water; can't wait to see the results! Later in the week we will be starting a Social unit that looks at Resources, Goods, and Work.

PE: Swimming and biking are starting next week! The permission form will go home this week.
