Spooky Eyes by Caden Today was the start of the students three day week (teachers have meetings Thursday and Friday).  We started off the day with our spelling word "October", and the introduction to a story called "How to have fun in October".   We also doodled a cornucopia of food for thanksgiving.  In Language arts with Mrs. Hill we had a writers workshop and did a weekend report story.  What did you write about from your weekend?  We also practiced our daily 5 routines.  After recess we had math.  Today we started our unit test on patterns.  Alot of students finished but many need to go back and finish up tomorrow.  After lunch we had computer.  We loggged in under our own names and worded on navigating to www.schooltube.com. Do you remember what WWW stands for? After computer we had gym class, but it was cut short due to a firedrill.  Everyone got out safe and we did a great job.  When we came back we talked about the pilgrams, the mayflower, and thanksgiving in general.  Then we finished off our day with our book of gratitude, who did you say thank you to today.  I signed the agendas and we got ready for home.  Get lots of rest tonight and I will see you tomorrorow.

Im Ready for my Close Up by Caleb I cant believe how fast this week went!  Todays spelling word was "apple" and the introduction for a story called "How to eat an apple".  Miss Tucker was in for Mrs. Hill today.  In language arts we worked on spelling, daily 5, and played some sight word BINGO!  I hope you won!  After recess we had Make Something that Does Something.  Today we tried to build a structure that was taller than a marker that could hold up books without collapsing.  We only had a small amount of masking tape and some sheets of paper to work with.  How well did your structure do?  Who was on your team?  After lunch we had an assembly.  Congratulation to all of the winners including the few from our class.  Do you remember who won?  (hint: Icare PC; Good Listener AK, TD, LM; The Hard Worker CK ZS).  After the assembly Mrs. Hache had a quick PE class with us.  We came back upstairs, filled out our agenda, packed our book bags (including the proofs from picture day), and came back in for our weekly Math Draw.  Each morning the students can fill out a math sheet.  If they get it all correct they can enter it as a ballot for our draw.  This week's winner chose the prize "Star in the Morning Annoucements with a Friend".  I think thats a pretty cool prize!  Have a great weekend and I will see you on Monday!

Just Smiling in the Rain by Chloe Today was an unplanned absence on my part.  We started off the day with Miss Mcfarlene covering for me and looking after the class until a substitute teacher could be found.  I received a text from her saying "the students are rearranging your room", to which I replied "as long as they dont touch my collectable action figures".  Mrs Mcfarlene guarded them with her life until Miss Case could arrive.  Our spelling word of the day was "slipper" and we doodled a snake. We did our regular math class.   She reviewed even and odd numbers.  Which digit tells us if a number is even or odd.  Is a digit different from a number?  How?  After recess we had language arts with Mrs. Hill.  We worked on daily 5 activities.  Two words that come up alot in daily 5 are "independant" and "stamina".  Do you know what these two words mean?  After lunch we had library.  We had just enough time to return our books, get new books, and put them back in the classroom before PE with Mrs. Hache.  I wasn't here today so Im not sure what fun games you played, do you remember?  After PE we came back up to the classroom with Miss Case and wrote in our book of gratitude.  What did you say for "how to be a good friend"?   I will be here tomorrow!   Im very excited for Make Something That Does Something and for the Assembly!   Everyone is welcome to attend the assembly and celebrate the month with us.  There are a few awards that will be handed out tomorrow, I know some people will be dissappointed that they didn't win something, but I hope you show excitement for the winners more than dissappointment for yourself (and I know sometimes thats hard).  Its only the first month and theres lots of time in the year to work hard and earn an award.  Get lots of sleep and I will see you bright and early.
