Tuesday Update April 19th

Weather station in the library

I am away today but here is the info I left the Sub

8:45 attendance

Between start and recess

library (there is a group of students who handle this (B, A T, C) They gather the books and take them up to the library. I normally sign the books in but those students can also do that. When they leave I do the attendance and tell the rest the computer drill. After attendance, take the rest to the Library. After they have signed out a book they sit and read until most of the students have their book signed out, or when I think they are ready to go to computers.

Computers (power-point) This is the third class on it and students are experimenting with power-point and are getting pretty good at it. Assign them their choice of any animal and have them create a presentation. Wrap up around 9:47 to give them time to get back to class and get their snack and wait for announcements.

recess

Special tile art project in the music room (not sure how long will take). They are glazing. You have to basically just help out artist. Take pictures of the students in action. If camera is not on my desk J. had the camera when i left the class yesterday and was taking some pictures for me.

With the extra time after music
M.E. ten things (minimum) They should think of all 5 senses, smells, noises etc; they may mention things about their rooms, chores, while driving, while in public, weekends, workdays, holidays, when ____ this happens. Count down from 10 to #1 .. ending with something like ‘And most of all .....’

Lunch: Many lunch monitor so let those monitors get ready and go as soon as the bell goes or slightly before.

After Lunch: Reading 30 - 40 min
1:25 P.E. They can vote on the game or run any game or p.e. activity you know and like. If in doubt put Q in charge of running the game.

After P.E. students can work in their small groups to finish their design an animal project; work by themselves on their mini-book ‘memory box’; design a title page for their m.e. day book and make sure three pages assigned so far for m.e. are completed and beautiful.
Leave time for clean up and dismiss by row. ...
