Monday in Mrs. Bognetti's Room

This morning we talked about pumpkins and how they grow. During the week, we will read a story called From Seed to Plant. It is a non-fiction story about plant growth. Then, we practiced using words with str-, spr, and thr-. We introduced the spelling words (list coming home today!) and completed an activity using the words, too. We finished our two sentences of DLP for today and talked about capitalizing names of months. We completed two guided reading groups/centers. Then, in Science, we learned about the heart. We watched a brainpop video about the heart, drew one, and added it to our "bodies" that we are working on. After lunch, we read Harry Potter. Then, we went down to the gym for a dress rehearsal for Wednesday's show. The students sang enthusiastically! We can't wait for you to see them! They should be here at 6:45 on Wednesday night. We completed our Daily Oral Geography packet today and read about community workers that are paid for by taxes. Then, we went to gym class. There is no homework tonight...perhaps you will have time for an extra book tonight!
