Hanging Out by Jaxon Fridays always go so fast!  We started out the day with our sharing circle.  We took turns being good listeners, placing our eyes on the speaker and not making any movements or noise.  Each person took a turn asking the next person "what are you doing this weekend?".  What was your answer.  Then we took turns placing a block on a tower to see how high we could make it before it fell.  Before we started I told everyone two things were certain, the tower would eventually fall, and life will continue on after it does.  I was right about both today!  Next we did our spelling word "information".  What is special about the ending syllable of this word?  We wrote an introduction for "How to Find Information" and doodled a candy.  In language arts with Mrs. Hill we played sight word bingo and did a round of the daily five.  After recess we had Make Something That Does Something.  Today we worked in teams to make coffe cup flash lights with the little bits.  Did your flash light work?  What kind of button did your team use?  After lunch we had art.  We drew a scarecrow (with some help from a video on youtube) in a pumpkin patch with some crows.  We also put our first layer of color down with crayons they look great!  Then we went to PE with Mrs. Hache and played soccer!  I couldnt believe how tired everyone looked after gym!  Instead of a book of gratitude today we decided to put some more work into our scare crows, while I signed the agenda's.  We tried one more time for the tower game, and then got ready to go home.  I was glad to see most of the students were wearing hats and mitts today as it is really starting to get cold outside.  Have a great weekend, stay safe, stay warm, get lots of rest, and I will see you on Monday!
