Thursday--Miss Calderone's class

Today we started our day completing a couple sentences in our DLP and writing in our journal. We used the word wall words for this week to write a paragraph. After sharing, we reviewed vowels and consonants. We identified the VCCV patterns in words and worked to split them into syllables. We completed a sheet with a partner and corrected it together. We then began our centers. We completed two, but took a break to work on proper nouns. While we ate snack we completed a grammar sheet about proper nouns. After correcting it together, we finished our last center. We ended the morning learning about synonyms. After lunch we read Harry Potter for a bit and then had math. We reviewed the coins that we learned and today started learning about making change!!!! This is a tough concept so we spent the entire time using play money to make change. Together we completed some math workbook pages. Science was next. We corrected our science homework from the other day and then reviewed the habitats we've learned so far. I gave the class clues and they had to identify "what habitat I am in". It was a lot of fun. Our day ended with P.E.

The homework for tonight is to read Hedgehog Bakes a Cake and study for the test, finish your spelling packet and study, and also complete the math sheet that was given to you for homework depending on what math class you're in. Please remember to return the orange slips stating whether your family will attend the Fall Family Night on November 18th.
