Friday--Miss Calderone's class

We had a fast day! We started out correcting the rest of our D.L.P and then headed straight into centers. After completing the last 3 centers we took our spelling followed by our reading tests. We played Pictionary/charades in the middle to review the vocabulary words. Our morning ended with social studies. We talked about savings and checking accounts and had a very in depth discussion about how to use them. We also reviewed using a compass rose. After lunch a couple students read their own stories and then we read Harry Potter for a bit. We then had math. We reviewed all of the words for capacity and then learned two more; gram and kilogram. We were able to hold weights that equaled one gram and one kilogram so we can get a better idea of what they felt like. We then compared and estimated weights using a balance. We had a really great time! We finished our homework in class and had enough time to correct it. We ended math reviewing time. After math we headed to music and finished our day with Celebration Day. We wrote facts about whales and put it in the middle of a whale picture. Check them out in our hallway!

The homework for the weekend is to read Cool Ali and complete social studies page 29/30. Also, finish the whales if you didn’t in class.
