Monday--Miss Calderone's class

Today we started right away with music and P.E. When we came back we corrected our D.L.P. and wrote in our April journal about what we did over the weekend. After sharing we learned about the new chunks for the week; ph- and gh- (both make "f" sound). We identified the chunks in a poem and then took our spelling pretest. After correcting the words together we learned about past and present verbs: am, is, are, was, were. We talked about which ones mean the present and which mean the past and then independently completed a worksheet. We finished the morning completing one center. After lunch we read Harry Potter and then switched for math. We spent the math period practicing triple digit subtraction. Tomorrow will be the test so please make sure to practice at home! After math we got into our Washington D.C. groups. Some groups spent time in the computer lab researching facts while the other groups worked on their illustrations.

The homework for tonight is a math page/Study and get the reading test signed. The spring pictures went home today. Whatever you do not intend on buying please send back to the school. If you do take any pictures you must pay for them by filling out the form and bring that and the money to school. If you have any questions please email or call me!
