Students work so much harder on their Math 4 Today when it is Technology Tuesday... Anyway, we worked on our M4T and then used our technology to get our brains going. Emma was very involved in homeroom this morning and may kiddos read with her! (The compassion and care that some of these students have is amazing!)                                  

             

      

After getting our brains worked up, we finished watching the Bill Nye video about fossils and then went to gym. After gym, we switched things up a little for Math. I took a practice OAA and they had to grade and score my assessment. They had to decide if my answer was correct and if not, had to correct it. Then, they scored my assessment--I failed. :( They caught most of my mistakes and were able to fix them AND also explain what I did wrong. Good job analyzing! We then walked around the room answering practice questions.
The rain stopped just in time for recess and we were able to play outside--it was glorious! After recess, we listened to Bud, Not Buddy and wrote down an inference that we made along with evidence as to why/how we felt this way. In Reader's Workshop, we worked with a Time For Kids about video games and learned some new vocabulary--does your child know what equine means?? We also read silently and independently. We worked with poetry in Writer's Workshop today. We were a little competitive with Funglish yesterday so we're going to take a day off. :)
