Tuesday, April 8

Unfortunately, I spent the morning at the doctor with my daughter and getting x-rays of her foot...hopefully it isn't broken but we're waiting to hear back...at least it isn't severe! Anyway, Mrs. Park was here this morning and helped the kiddos with the following: In Science, they completed their Physical Science post-tests on electricity and circuits. They were able to use any resources needed to complete this work. In Math, they worked with weight and estimating a gram, kilogram, ounce and pound. Tomorrow we'll check their estimates. After a glorious outdoor recess, I began a new read aloud with them. We are reading a memoir by Tomie dePaola called 26 Fairmount Avenue. Ask your child about a memoir and hopefully they will tell you that it is like a long personal narrative. Finally, our day ended with working on our persuasive writing/opinion piece on if they should have assigned seats at lunch.
