Wednesday Update April 27

Today six students from the class were recognized at our assembly.
They were honored for striving for excellence in work habits, science, socials, writing, spelling, music and art


Notices:
Lunch program forms back signed please (for those on or who want to be on the lunch program)
Keep chocolate items and love of reading items coming in for our spring fair basket

We started the day with a writing assignment in M.E. The writing topic was on music. After the writing assignment we then did some simple long division using a multiplication chart. The students used the chart to find the closest multiple then subtracted to find the remainder. After about 5 samples most of the students had some idea what the process was. Look for their Friday test to see if they need further help at home.

After recess the students went to music with Mrs. Awalt then we did a Socials assignment looking at the type of ships used by the early explorers to North America. The students had to draw free-hand and label a cross section of a typical sailing ship of the time.

After Lunch we read for 35 min then did some simple Science explorations where the students did a few optic tricks. After Science we went to the recognition assembly which, along with the awards ceremony, we were treated to the final cut of the Read for the Top Video that will be used for promotion by the school district and put up on You Tube. After the assembly we only had 10 min before the end of the day so we only had time for a quick clean up.
