Great Measurement Day

This morning in Math we worked on measurment.  We found measurement benchmarks around the room.  Benchmarks are used in case you don't have a measuring tool.  Panda thought measuring was really awesome!  Next we did Writing Workshop and we kept working on our How-Tos.  Today we worked on our introductions.  Animal Hero thought it was fun because she likes writing.  Next we did Reading Workshop and we rotated through our stations.  Ms. K met with book clubs.  Flying Shoe finished writing his word sort on paper.  After lunch we did Read Aloud.  We are reading a new book called The Watsons Go to Birmingham-1963.  Today Kenny found a new friend by accident.  His new is called Rufus and he is from down south, so he looks and talks different than all the other kids.  He talked about shooting and eating squirrels, which Kenny thought was strange.  Carly thought Rufus was wierd.  Next we did P.E.  In P.E. we played floor hockey.  Carly and Bunny were on the same team and were having a great time!  At the end of the day we did science.  We finished our experiment from yesterday and watched a few vidoes on the computer.  Horse Girl liked science because we got to watch some really interesting videos.  Omega liked it when the frog looked at us. 

Musical Monday

Today in math we read a story about a family vacaction.  We have to solve problems about how many miles they traveled.  Dempsey thinks he'll be able to solve them no problem.  Next we went to laptop lab to do Writing.  Some people were waiting to get their story fixed by Ms. K, we did xtra math, or Type to Learn.  Razorback did Type to Learn.  During Reading Workshop we got new Reader's Theater books.  Emma is in the Our New Home group.  Today in Read Aloud, Chester had a party with his friends.  Chester got his house all clean for the party.  Horse Girl thinks Chester is going to find another new friend.  In Music we had Talent Day.  Flying Shoe thought the audience were good listeners.  At the end of the day we did Art catch up.  Some people were done, so they did a reading, writing, or drawing choice.  Judy Amber helped file kids art into folders.  At the end of the day Emma shared her VIP poster.
