Not everyone has returned their class agreements yet. A new copy went home today if requested. Please sign and return them tomorrow if you haven't yet. Meet the teacher will be next Thursday, September 19. There will be two 45 minute sessions, one from 6:00 - 6:45 and one from 6:45 - 7:30. You can attend either one. Parent council pizza will be available that evening as well.
Morning recap:
Wednesday mornings we have music first thing. When we got back to class, we did word work and came up with as many words as we could using the letters in GRADE SIX. In language arts, we did some review based on what Ms. Winston noticed in our writing samples from the other day. Many of us were misusing punctuation, so we went over different punctuation marks and when to use each of them. We spent an extra long time focusing on apostrophes because so many of us are using apostrophes in plurals (eg. I like cat's.). After fixing some apostrophe errors and explaining the reason to use or not use an apostrophe (contraction, possessive, plural), we reviewed what all sentences need to have, and sorted a list of parts of speech into nouns, verbs, and adjectives. During math, we reviewed what we did yesterday (place value, standard and expanded form, base ten blocks, etc.) and then received a booklet to practice these skills. Gym was moved indoors again so we played capture the gold against the grade fives. We ended the morning at the library. Our normal library day is Thursday but Mrs. Paolini will be away tomorrow.
