First day back from Winter break, and our first day in class in 2018, and I would be hard pressed to ask for a better day! The students (and I) were back, rested, and ready to roll this morning. We began our day with a class circle discussion about the break, some highlights, any new news to pass along. From there, the students were sent on an information Scavenger Hunt to find out more about their classmates' holidays. After recess, we began to compile a list of adjectives the students had created with their Scavenger Hunt activity, and then took those adjectives, broke the class into groups of 5, and they began to collaboratively create sentences. Following lunch, we had our regular silent reading period, before editing, and finalizing group sentences. We capped the day, with some DPA outside, and then painted our hands as part of an Art Activity we will be finishing tomorrow.
HOMEWORK: Students who are not finished their FINAL 5 TASK Challenge Assignment, need to have their French Flash Cards and their other tasks completed by Thursday this week. I will hand out the assignment again tomorrow, for any students who may have misplaced or lost their work.
REMINDER: We have gym class beginning tomorrow, and students are required to have appropriate clean indoor athletic shoes for class. Students should also have indoor shoes they wear in class, which can be their gym shoes, provided they wear them only indoors.
