Wednesday, December 4

Messages and Reminders:
Yesterday's LWW and today's computation / basic facts quizzes both went home today for you to look at and sign. Please return them so we know you have seen them. Some of us are volunteering as stage crew at the grade 1/2/3 concert tonight. Our winter concert (with K/4/5) is Thursday evening. Doors open at 6:00 and the concert begins at 6:30. The Reading... Give It a Shot program is going on until December 13, so make sure to return reading logs in exchange for hockey cards.

Morning recap:
This morning we started with our computation / basic facts quiz. As we finished the quiz, we did a critical thinking journal entry for chapters 7 and 8 of LWW. If we finished both tasks, we did read to self until it was time to go help set up for the winter concerts. When we got back to class, we went over yesterday's LWW quiz questions and got our quizzes back. Then we moved onto listening to chapter 9 of LWW. After taking a break to go outside for an icy cold gym class, we did the chapter 9 questions together as a class. During health, we talked about what it looks and feels like to be in the yellow and red zones and then brainstormed strategies we can use to help ourselves move back to the green zone. One of the strategies is deep breathing, so we practiced a few breathing strategies before writing some yellow and red zone strategies on our fortune tellers.

Upcoming important dates:
Wednesday, December 4 - 1/2/3 winter concert
Thursday, December 5 - K/4/5/6 winter concert
