Tuesday in Mrs. Walter's room

Today we started out working in journals. We wrote about what made us special. It was fun because we got to learn that some of our friends play a musical instrument, some of our friends speak another language, some of our friends feel that they are special because they are a good friend. After journal writing we practiced some phonics then dove into our reading series. We re-read The Mixed Up Chameleon and answered lots of questions about the story. The students still couldn't stop laughing. After that we got to go to the computer lab. After computer lab we caught up on some miscellaneous things. After lunch/recess we had an assembly in the gym regarding PBIS. That was a lot of fun. Then we got started in math. We worked on math skills for quite awhile. We will have a short quiz tomorrow that reviews simple addition and subtraction. After math we finished outlining our science chapter together about water and the water cycle. We ended our day by introducing social studies. We talked about living in a community and the rules and laws surrounding it. I can't believe we got through that much today. Wow. Keep practicing those spelling words. We have a test on Friday in spelling and in reading.
