Today was another great day. Each day we begin our routine with 2 rounds of Daily 5. During this time students choose one of the following jobs: writing, read to self, read to someone, listening to reading or word work. During this time I am doing guided reading with small groups. We continue to work on our reading strategies mentioned in yesterday's blog.
Today during writer's workshop we worked on writing letters to soldiers to thank them for their sacrifice. Please ask your child what they wrote about.
This morning we had a practice lockdown. The class did amazing. We had absolutely no issues.
We had gym this morning as we do Monday- Thursday at 9:30. Mrs. Quilley always has amazing activities planned for us that keep us busy for the full 25 minutes. We played a game called Toxic Blast and Tyson says it was the best gym class ever.
This morning we also talked about the spelling program words their way. This program is new to me so I am working hard to figure things out. Words have been sent home for practice.
Each afternoon we start with DEAR (drop everything and read). After DEAR we decided to get our bodies moving with a number of songs from Just Dance. After this we moved on to Math. Today we played a new game called How Many More. I am not going to give any more details. I would like your child to play this game with you at home. They are going to challenge you tonight.

At the end of the day we brainstormed 4 expectations for working well in a group. Please have your child share these ideas with you and please continue to post your ideas on the blog.
Also, we have 2 snacks a day. If possible please send your child with an extra snack for the afternoon.
Have a wonderful evening!
To work in a group you have to be nice and take turns and not take over everyone else in your group. You have to include everyone. You can let others join your group when they don't have a group. Don't get mad if your group is not doing what you want. Listen to your friends ideas. By Gracelyn

To work well in a group We should take turns on computer.We should listen and respect each other ideas. We should solve our problems ourselves by communicating. We should help each other if someone is having trouble.
