Agenda 12_15_2009

  My apologies for totally forgetting to even post yesterday.  It was not an intentional part of the homework free 2009.  Today we made stars for our Christmas tree in art.  We worked on using a number line for addition and subtraction in math.  In Language Arts we worked on things we can do to be more independent, like if the writing center is out of lined paper, What should you do to show you can be independent?  In our writing conferences we are still working on using talking or quotation marks.  Tomorrow we have our Christmas dinner, Thursday is hot lunch, Friday we have an assembly first thing, and the Choir will be gone on Friday as well.  This week is going to go quick!  Enjoy 2009 while you can I will see you tomorrow.

Good Morning,

Agenda 12_11_2009

  A regular day today with no rehearsals, or assembly's, or bus trips.  It went very well and we settled back into our routine nicely.  A show of hands at the first of the day revealed most students wore their PJ's inside out to bed Wednesday night, but I guess we already knew that.  We worked on using some different setting in our stories today in Language Arts.   A few stories look like they may have some green screen potential.  In PE we played about 5 different games that the students chose.  We cleaned our desks in the afternoon (long overdue), and we spent some time in the computer lab as well.  Have a great weekend and I will see you for one more week on Monday.

Agenda 12_09_2009

  Today was our big concert day, but before we even left the school we started with some GREAT news!  Shannon in our class won the Art contest for K-3 in District 16!  That is SO amazing.  What a great job at the concert today everyone, you all worked hard and it showed.  Tomorrow is a big day for our choir as they will be going to sing for the seniors, if there is not a storm day.  Half the class wants there to be school because of the choir trip and the other half just wants a snow day.  I told them that we can decide like we always do with majority rules.  If they want school to be cancelled they will wear their pajama's inside out to bed.  If they want school to be open and to go on the trip wear them the regular way to bed.  Listen to the radio tomorrow morning to find out how most of the students in this class wore their PJ's to bed!  See you...... (soon?).

Agenda 12_08_2009

  Tomorrow is our Christmas Concert at JMH!  Get to bed early because we don't our big voices turning into yawns, that looks bad.  Hot lunch tomorrow as well.  The day went by quick today.  We went right up to JMH for a final rehearsal, and we got back in time to work on our stamina and independence reading and writing.  Santa must be on his way because all the boys and girls have been on their best behavior.  We finished off the day making some wreaths in Art.  GET LOTS OF SLEEP and don't forget your SMILES!!! See you tomorrow!

Agenda 12_07_2009

  So this morning we spent our morning up at the high school getting set up for our Christmas concert.  I was very proud of our class.  We did have a lot of down time today and our class worked independently and keep busy and out of trouble!  We had a few minutes left over before lunch so as a little reward we had a game of quiet ball on our desks.  Zach R was the winner today!  We have a quick rehearsal up at the high school tomorrow and the final performance on Wednesday.  Congratulations to Reese who won the Math Bonus last week.  Get lots of rest and we will see you tomorrow.  Bring your singing voices and your smiles.

  We found out what the pharaoh's secret treasure was and why you should never bring a skateboard on a plane in our chapter book today!  Ben was the first one to produce a story book, but Im sure there will be many to follow.  Check it out under our video section.  We did some shopping today and we started working on spelling some BIG words.  Do you remember how we did it?  In gym today we got out the cup stackers.  We have some fast hands in this room.  Keep practicing for the Christmas concert and I will see you all tomorrow.

Agenda 12_02_2009

  Check out our Christmas Concert Preview under video's.  We are going to be so ready for this concert!  Also I didnt realize my recording of the Skype conversation with Santa had such poor audio quality, so I wrote the question over the video.  We worked on our stamina for write to self today, but our new mailboxes through us off a bit, Im sure we will be better tomorrow.  In math we reviewed addition, order, and the counting on strategy when writing math sentences.  Keep practing at home.  (May want to read the suggestions from yesterday) I ALMOST FORGOT!  We found out who the mummy was in our chapter book.  A new character called... "The Shadow"!  This series is so good.  Don't forget the shopping party is tomorrow as well.  Have a good night and see you tomorrow.
