This hectic week is almost over... We began our day with Guidance. Mrs. Vidic talked with the kiddos about how they can make a difference. After Music, we took our assessment over fractions-equivalent, comparing and adding/subtracting. I counted wrong and so there are 2 scores--ignore the crossed out one-the one circled is the correct score. Sorry! Overall, they did well. If your child scored below a 75%, they need extra practice over the break. We have been working on these standards for quite a few weeks and they should have these skills more secure by now... We enjoyed another indoor recess and then read City of Ember. Poppy was found! Phew! BUT, the lights were out for 7 minutes! Uh-oh... Then, we played our math games. We will play them upon our return as a refresher of fractions and then they can come home. In Reader's Workshop, we completed a comprehension activity on either A Christmas Carol or The Reindeer and worked on our inferencing skills to finish the activity from yesterday where they got to be a spy elf for Santa. In Writing, we published our letters!
