Language Arts~
We had a terrific Tuesday! Our Frindle books have arrived and today we dove back into the book. Each child has their own book that they are welcome to read and write in. My day was made when one student remarked that this was a very good book. We reread chapters 1 and 2. We pointed out different figurative language techniques that the author uses to catch our attention. We read chapter 3 together. The students had 4 questions about the chapter that they needed to answer, a few vocabulary words that that they used context clues to help define, and a journal entry. We also spent a few minutes reviewing finding answers in a non-fiction text and the prefix -un.
HW: Quiz tomorrow over Frindle chapters 1-3. and any unfinished work.
Math~
Today our focus was on using data from our Student Reference Book. We compared large numbers and also spent a little time reviewing rounding. The test over unit 5 is on Thursday. A very brief study guide came home today. Look for the review test tomorrow.
