Wake Up Wednesday

We had a comfy day in our jammies today. Thank you to everyone who donated a $1.00 to help fight cancer.

Language Arts
We reviewed some language arts skills this morning. Then dove into our novel study. Today our focus was on point of view, figurative language, author's craft and genre. We read with our reading buddies and listened to book project presentations. Homework tonight is to do the journal entries for chapters 7-9.

Math
We reviewed for our Unit 3 test today. Tomorrow we are having center day. (The kids call this game day) One of the centers will be with me to review for the test in small groups. The test is on Friday. Homework tonight is to do the unit 3 checking progress.

DARE
Today Officer Redman discussed the dangers of marijuana and meth. He showed some pictures of what meth does to a person. He also discussed the dangers of driving while on drugs. The focus next week is on alcohol.

Just a reminder: Mrs. Woods class has a health test tomorrow.

Don't forget your boxtops! Fall Festival is Friday!
