Miss Rickard's Solo Week started yesterday and will continue through Monday - so she will be writing the blog! Sorry for the absence of the blog Friday through today. With the new privacy settings with Google, I had to upgrade to Google Chrome but did not figure that out until today! :) Thanks for being patient!
Good Afternoon!
We had a fabulous start to the day! The first two days of solo week have been great! I'm looking forward to the next few days!
Science- We have been focusing on heat the past two days. Today we discussed the different types of heat transfer by doing an experiment with ice cubes. The first team to melt their ice cube won!
No Homework
Reading- The kids finished part B in the vocab packet and then continued working on their myth projects in groups. Each group of three is researching a greek myth and working on a way to present it. Some have chosen to do a puppet show, play, power point, or the new presentation program, animoto. Their work so far looks great, and I can't wait to see the finished products! We finished up reading in lit groups.
*Homework- Finish part B of Vocab if it was not completed in class.
Study for vocab test on Friday!
Math- The students took the fraction test.We will start decimals tomorrow.
*If the study guide was not turned in today, please remind them to bring it tomorrow!
Writing- The kids are continuing to write their myths. I have read through several and they are so creative. We are still in the drafting stage and will continue working on them the rest of the week.
No Homework
Have a wonderful Wednesday evening!
Miss Rickard
