Wednesday--Miss Calderone's class

Today we started as usual with our DLP and journal. After sharing our journals we continued to work on our rough drafts. We used our quick words to find the spelling of words that we knew we spelled incorrectly. We then had to start centers. We completed 3 centers and talked briefly about the importance of Veterans Day. Today was our first day of Junior Achievement so two teachers came in and taught us about our community! We finished our morning watching a movie about Veterans Day. After lunch we read Harry Potter for a bit and then began math. We reviewed what we learned about telling time and then moved on to learn about telling time to the 5's. We practiced skip counting and putting the hands on the correct numbers using mini clocks that we each got to use. We completed some workbook pages in our math book and then switched back to normal classes. We then went to library, came back, and finished the day with our book buddies. I have an all-day meeting tomorrow so there will be no "scoop" tomorrow.

The homework for tonight is to read Lemonade for Sale, complete math 9-2, and get your math test signed. Please continue practicing counting money to get a firm grasp on the concept. :)
