It was an exciting and fun-filled day at Northpoint!
Language Arts~ We worked on Odyssey and Typing in computer lab and then the fire alarm rang! Please see the letter that was emailed home earlier or was sent home with the youngest and only children for more details on that adventure. The kids were awesome! They were good listeners and followed directions very well. I am very proud of their behavior.
We came back inside and took a closer look at the nature myth of Narcissus and Echo. This myth explains how echos came to be and where the flower, Narcissus, comes from. We looked at the story three different ways: video, overhead, and packet. All of the students finished the work with the packet. Next on our list of things to do was the written part of the acuity test. We then did a fun activity to help students realize that they must read all of the directions. Mr. Glassman taught us about the different types of soil and why dirt is not dirt.
HW:None
Math~
Our focus today was on true and false number sentences. A number sentence uses digits and symbols to express an idea about numbers the same way that words and punctuation expresses an idea. These sentences can be true or false. We practiced identifying the true and false statements.
We also did the written part of the math acuity test.
HW: Study link 3.9 (Many students have this done.)
Art Smart~
Thank you to the wonderful moms who taught us about Picasso and helped us create masterpieces!
