Tuesday--Miss Calderone's class

Our day began writing in our journal and correcting our DLP. We discussed what pollution is and wrote about ways to help keep our Earth clean. We volunteered answers and came up with a great list of ways to help stop polluting. We then reviewed the chunks for our spelling list and read a couple sentences with words that included the chunks. We discussed the vocabulary for the story and then moved on to read the story. The students were a bit restless so we partnered up to finish reading the story with a friend. Tomorrow we will finish the story as a class. We finished literacy by completing 3 centers. Our morning ended with social studies. We read a couple pages in our book and filled out the vocabulary card for the word ancestor. After lunch we headed straight into math. We reviewed the types of graphs we learned about and completed some math workbook pages together. We ran out of time because we needed to go to art. Our chapter math test will be on Thursday and will include reading different types of graphs and answering questions based on the data. I am very confident in the students! After art we finished discussing the story and partnered up to complete a science vocabulary sheet. We regrouped and corrected it. We ended the day reading a story.

The homework for tonight is math 11-6, read Watermelon Day, and study for the science test on Thursday.
