October Lunch Program


We began the day with the students working on activities with their spelling words.  There is no formal pretest, rather the students are given the words, they do exercises with them, take them home to study, (or copy them off the blog) to familiarize themselves with them and study for Friday formal Spelling  test.



After recess the students finished one of their ME (morning exercise) writing assignment,: If I were an animal, and began designing a mask of the animal.  This was more complicated for this group than I had expected.  But mostly it was my fault as it was hard work to start from scratch and make a mask.  That said many students got an excellent start and with little guidance got working fast, others started and finished and did an amazing job, others did not achieve much but now that a few of the students know how to craft the masks they can help the others.

After Lunch we had a quiet work period as some of the class went to choir.  After choir, we went to the first recognition assembly of the year.  The students in Even divisions were recognized, we are next month.  After the assembly we went back to class, did a major clean-up and ended the day with a game of Simon-Says outside.  See you all tomorrow.  Study your spelling and eat a good breakfast so you are ready to work and think, and play a little.

take care Mr. W
