Wednesday in Mrs. Bognetti's Class

This morning the class had a substitute while I attended a meeting. The students went to gym and then to a presentation of Stranger Danger put on by Officer Peterson with the Addison Police Department. When they returned to class, the reviewed the spelling words and started their homework in class. They need to finish it for homework. Then, they played tic tac toe with their vocabulary words. Each student had to tell what the word meant in order to win the square. Then, the students acted out the story of The Enormous Turnip. Afterwards, they completed two sentences of DLP. They looked at quotation marks and dialogue on a page of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Lastly, they reviewed nouns. Each student has a workbook page on nouns for homework tonight. During science, the class read Lesson 7 and completed a worksheet together. The students have to complete the Lesson outline for homework tonight. This afternoon, I read the second chapter of The Chamber of Secrets to the class. Then, for the first time, we switched classes for math today. The students were so excited! We talked about number lines and the words before, after, and between. The students completed a hundreds chart in class and worked in their workbooks. They have one page of math homework. We went to the computer lab as well. We went to www.apples4theteacher.com and looked at maps. We found our neighboring states and their capitals, too! Then, we finished our Illinois Booklets and re-read Lesson 4. The students have one page of Social Studies homework to complete.
