This morning we started out with an activity for a review science activity. Students read an article on the life cycle of a pumpkin and then they had to create the life cycle in pictures and explain using the science terms the life cycle! Once they were finished, they received a baby pumpkin to actually re-plant the pumpkin seed in the pumpkin to grow! Here are some pictures from our activity:
Thanks to the sweet parents who tackled the pumpkin carving with me today!!!!!
Next, we read 3 current events articles and wrote responses for our Twitter board. We read about the presidential debate, a new kid's movie coming out, and the Chicago Teacher's Strike.
We also took our vocab. tests today. Grades should be posted next week! *If you can't access Infinite Campus, please contact me to get you a password!
Students worked in small math groups as well. They were not the centers we usually do on Fridays, but they were more on what the child has missed over the week or something they need more practice in. Students were working on a variety of skills including multiplication, division, rounding, multiples, factors, and addition/subtraction.
Next students learned about the harmful uses of tobacco during health today with Mrs. Embry!
Lastly, we enjoyed our PAW party/Chik-Fil-A reward party this afternoon! It was great and we are now well on our way to another party with 35 PAWS!
FYI:
