Thursday, January 14 (School Shirt Day Tomorrow!)

 Hi parents,

I can't believe I ruined my blog updating streak yesterday... sorry about that, I'm not sure how I forgot. 

Today was a fun day for the class. In the morning, we had Music, and Ms. Thaxter taught a fun science / math activity in which the students used eye droppers to fill up containers with water, and then used food colouring the dye the water and experiment with colour mixing. The class had a blast - apparently filling containers with water is the new "Fortnite". I think they also learned a lot about teamwork, patience, colours, and liquids!

In the afternoon, we did some Animated Literacy work around the character "Chauncey Chipmunk". I was a bit nervous when we started the Ch- sound this week, but I think the students have really gotten the hang of it! Tomorrow's spelling quiz will be their final trial. 

At the end of the day today, we read the story "Kathy" from the book "Sideways Stories from Wayside School". It was about a girl who constantly looked for the worst in everything and everyone. I thought it had a great message that I hope resonated with the class. 

Also, Tomorrow is School Shirt Day!!

Have a nice night!

Zac
