Don't let the lack of photos the past few days fool you. Division 8 has been a hive of activity, it's just that I'm having issue with my older model smart phone. With that said, the first task we tackled in class this morning was our Spelling sentences for the week. We combed over our 20 phrases, and despite my best intentions, the students were able to identify three small, but easily correctable errors. Together we corrected the sentences, and then began to break them down into their component parts. We had some fun replacing nouns, with different nouns in our phrases, and then looked at pronouns and adverbs. After recess, we continued our work the math package I handed out on Monday. We also took about 20 minutes to go back over the steps to solving long division using 2 and 4 digit numbers. Before getting outside for some playtime in the beautiful sunshine at recess, I stated to read to the first three chapters of Wonder (thank you Caden for lending us your novel to read). In the afternoon, we played Bench Ball in gym class, then returned to class to work on Math, our Communities research project or to read, write or draw.
NOTE: Fun Friday this week will be Music Day, and students are encouraged to bring their iPods or MP3 players and headphones or ear buds to listen to their own music while working. We will also do a number of music related activities throughout the day.
REMINDER: In addition to it being Music Day this Friday, it is also Hot Lunch Day! YUMMY!!
