Wednesday in Mrs. Walter's Room

During announcements this morning Mr. langman said that the school will have a popcorn/movie day when the students have earned 1,000 Wilcat Cash tickets. That was exciting to hear. Today we started out by writing in our journals about families. We shared our journals with a partner then we talked about -ear words. We read our story, Helping Out, with a friend. We worked in centers and did guided reading groups. We went to gym class. After gym we took out our social studies books and worked in our landforms booklets again. They are working so hard on this and they are looking beautiful. We have been looking up many different landforms on the internet for the students to use as guides. They have been fascinated to see some of the landforms around the world. We ended our morning by doing Daily Geography. After lunch/recess we talked about carnivorous and herbivour dinosaurs. We talked about their characteristics. We read some from Harry Potter. Then we had math class. We worked on logical reasoning again. Yesterday we drew pictures to help us find the answers and today we had the children role play to help us find the answers. This was challenging work again today. After math class we had our extra recess that they had earned. That was a lot of fun. Weended our day by doing some more map work in social studies. We were not able to have library today, but we will have it on Thursday.
