Tuesday, November 27th

This morning we read a book about Johnny Appleseed and wrote about him in our journals.  We also read a poem about him.  Then, we reviewed words with -eer and -ear.  We also learned our vocabulary words.  Then, we read the play of Johnny Appleseed.  The children enjoyed sharing their different parts.  After art class, we finished our DLP and did a grammar activity on capitalizing the names of days of the week.  This afternoon we read Matilda.  Then, we went to gym and music.  In math, we introduced Chapter 5.  We will be working with place value up to 1,000.  Many students did not know that 999 comes before 1,000.  Talk with your student about numbers in the hundreds.  We cut apart some vocabulary cards to help us practice our new math words and we made a foldable with ones, tens, and hundreds.  Tomorrow we will begin the first lesson.

Spelling Packets are due on Thursday.  We will also take our Spelling test that day.
