Tuesday, January 30th

This morning we wrote non-fiction information about snakes in our journals.  I was amazed at how much the class already knew!  Then, we reviewed words with -ou and -ow.  We did a Making Words activity, too.  Then, we learned this week's vocabulary words.  We talked about cause and effect.  Then, we read The Day Jimmy's Boa Ate the Wash and used the cause/effect strategy while we discussed the story.  We completed our DLP and a grammar activity on pronouns as well.  Then, we went to art class.  This afternoon, we silent read and set up our Book Bags.  Then we went to music and gym class.  In math, we learned how to problem solve using three digit subtraction.  Most students do have math homework, but a few finished in class.

There will be a Science Test on Thursday on Animal Classifications.  Notes and definitions of the vocabulary words went home today along with the Science book for review.  The Spelling Packet is due on Thursday.
