Wednesday is pajama day and our next basic facts / computation quiz. There is a social studies unit test on Friday - see Mr. Shackelton's blog for more info. Fun lunch forms went home last week - remember to order online this week. Parent meeting about outdoor school is Thursday, January 30 at 6:00. Many students still need to return their signed report card envelopes (keep the report card at home) and LA and math quizzes from December.
Morning Recap:
This morning after ignite, we did read to self or read to someone. Then we did a factoring review in math. Knowing how to find factors will help us when we need to simplify fractions and ratios. We did some practice as a class and on our own. Nearly half our class was missing today, so after the first part of math, we ended up changing our plans quite a bit. Rather than moving even further ahead in math and starting a bunch of new LA and having to catch up half our class tomorrow when they're back, we took a bit of a break from our usual work. Our buddies were also missing half their class today, so we went down and joined them to make one super grade 2/6 class. We did some word work and then watched Charlotte's Web and talked about how Charlotte is a good example of someone who is mindful (mindfulness is the January pillar of the month). We took a break to go to gym, where we started mat work in gymnastics, and then we went back to buddies to finish the movie.
