We had a lovely Monday morning. We worked on several grammar activities reviewing prefixes, base words and their meanings. We also worked on subject and predicate. Students enjoyed creating subject and predicate cards and sharing them with their classmates. Students finished comprehension answers for Aero and Officer Mike. We all enjoyed reading this informational text about a police officer's relationship with his K9.
Ms. Karen came for Brain Gym after snack. Students practiced Sun Salutations, starfish, plank and several other brain/body engaging exercises. They also used shamrocks to activate learning in both parts of the brain.
Students will have one or two spelling activities due by Wednesday (depending on whether or not they completed one on last week's snow day). The test will be given on the 14th. We won't take our next pretest until Monday morning. Our next list focuses on more "bossy r" words.
Our math lessons this week involve using multiplication/division diagrams to solve number stories, playing Multiplication Top-It and applying strategies to multiply larger factors, and learning about PEMDAS while using parentheses in number sentences. We will have math homework on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
No school tomorrow for teacher workshops! Enjoy the snow! :)
Scholastic book orders are due on 3/15. Our classroom code is HB244.
Have a wonderful week! :)
