Today was a busy day!
Language Arts
We started our day with music class. Next we came back to the room and worked on handwriting. We had a fire drill. The kids were great! They were quiet and respectful. We practiced proofreading a paragraph. It was a challenge because it had no ending punctuation. Next the kids read independently while I wrote note cards with the students lexile levels on them. They are anxious to start those book projects. As a teacher, I am most impressed. We worked on how to answer a question using complete sentences and details from a story. We also discussed character traits. We worked on writing our problem and solution stories. We learned two new greek roots. Peri (around) and Graph, gram (write). No homework.
