Time to Fly! by Alexis The days are definately getting colder, but it was nice to see most students are dressing much warmer!  We started off the day a bit late because of the new breakfast program sponsored by Big Brothers Big Sisters!  The kids in this class are making good use of the program too!  We are all very excited about it.  We started off the day with a sharing circle.  We practiced being good listeners and making eye contact and asking each other the question of the day "what is your favorite food?".  Our spelling word was "electrician" and our introduction was for the story "How to become an electrician".  In math we did a quiz for writing numbers.  We used our hundreds chart to add by ones and tens.  We did an addition sheet and some students got an introduction to nickels and pennies.  We will be counting money next with pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters.  After recess we had language arts with Mrs. Hill.  We played the contraction game.  I do not remember what a contraction is, do you?  We also did a round of the daily five.  After lunch we had guidance with Ms. MacKenzie.  She had some very relaxing music with her!  What did she do with you?  In PE with Mrs. Hache we played a witch game.  Do you think she gets powers at Halloween?  I bet she doesnt!  We finished off the day with a much needed desk clean, our book of gratitude, we got the agenda's signed and packed and called it a day!  Hot lunch tomorrow!  Dress warm and get lots of sleep for a busy day.
