Tuesday--Miss Calderone's class

What a fast day! We started out today correcting our DLP and writing in our October journals. We read the word wall words for this week and wrote sentences using each word. After sharing, we reviewed abbreviations by completing a workbook page and correcting it together. We then learned the vocabulary for the new story and listened to/discussed Mr. Putter and Tabby Fly a Plane. We completed 3 centers and finished our morning working on our monsters! They're really turning out great. All groups finished coloring them, some finished cutting them out, and many began stuffing. I can't wait to see the finished product! After lunch we headed straight into math. We reviewed the coins we learned and practiced combining 2 different sets of coins to make the same value. We then identified which set of coins had the fewest amount. We worked on a challenge sheet and corrected it together. We ran out of time because before we knew it, it was time for art. When we got back from art we had social studies. We read discussed the new vocabulary and learned about cause and effect. Our day ended with science. We read some pages in our book and learned about the first habitat; woodland forest.

The homework for today is to complete math 7-5 OR 7-4 depending on what class you are in, social studies pg. 13, and read Mr. Putter and Tabby Fly a Plane. Also, the parent/teacher conference sheet with our meeting date and time is in your child's folder; please review it.
