Monday--Miss Calderone's class

What a fast day! Today we began our day getting our new D.L.P., May journal and assignment sheet. We went to Music and P.E. and when we came back we corrected our D.L.P. and wrote in our May journals about how to do our best on the M.A.P.s test. After discussing we learned the new chunks for this week; -oo and -ou (both making the "ugh" sounds). We took our spelling pretest, corrected it together, and learned the vocabulary for the new story. It's a long story so we began reading today. We are also filling out a fact/fiction packet as we read to reinforce the information that we learned. We finished our morning with one center. After lunch we went straight to the computer lab to take our M.A.P.s test in reading. The students did so well focusing and not talking that we went outside for a ten minute break! When we came back we began math. Today we began chapter 27 and started out the chapter by learning about range (highest # - lowest #) and mode (. We looked at sets of numbers and figured out the range and the mode and then completed some pages in our math book.

The homework for tonight is to sign the reading and math test, complete math 27-1, bring back the starfish (by Wednesday), and remember to return any sock hop forms or yearbook forms.
