It’s Friday!

There is no homework!

Except read.  Read and get your reading log signed for tonight (Friday) AND for the weekend.

As is our custom, today we did lots of review, and took lots of quizzes.

 

We reviewed a bunch of math, specifically word problems and multiplication, and then took a quiz where Mr. Potter tricked the socks off the students it seems.  Ask your student about whether they got the Gustavo problem or the last problem correct.  It was definitely tricky!

In Language Arts we talked a bit more about the elements of a story, and then took a reading comprehension quiz.  From what I’ve seen from just glancing at them, they look pretty good.

We also had a short talk about the differences between they’re, their, and there.  When reading some sneakers stories the other day I noticed a few problems with this.  Students did some exercises identifying these, and also some proofreading work.

In Science we read a bit more about plants and their uses, and then (surprise!) took a quiz on that too.

Finally, we decided that we will have an electronics/game day next Friday.  Students are welcome to bring in a game to play during recess/lunch next Friday.  This is our celebration for earning our bronze paw.  We still have to decide what we are doing for our silver, and actually today we earned our gold!  This class is just too good, seriously.

 

so, tl;dr

read!

read!

Have a good weekend!
