Reading:
We continued with our skill of theme and hyperbole's with Tall Tales.  Students read Stormalong and answered comprehension questions and exaggeration questions about this Tall Tale.  Next, students are getting to make up their own Tall Tales! I think this should be easy for some! haha! Our main character is Ms. Sharp!!!! The kids are excited!  Lastly, students had chapter(s) to read in their Lit. Books.
HW: read one chapter of lit book; Hoot, Great Good Thing, and Hatchet need to read 2 more chapters; and students who did not finish Stormalong need to finish

Science:
Today we reviewed behavior of light.  We did different demonstrations to show reflecting, refracting, and absorbing light.  We also went over translucent, transparent, and opaque light.  Your child will be having a short quiz tomorrow over these terms.  They are all identified with examples in their Science Journals.
HW: practice terms for quiz

Have a good night,
