Hi parents,
We had a great day today!
The spelling quiz was more challenging than I expected. I think we'll need to review some of the words again next week. But the students gave it their all, and stayed focused, so that was good.
Ms. Brown took the class out for gym once again, and when we got back, we did a really cool writing task. Students wrote "Elf Diary" entries, similar to what we did when the students wrote in their 'bat journals'. They did such an awesome job of this one that we had a sharing session at the end, and many students were excited to read their work aloud in front of the class.
We added the finishing touches to our drums by tying some twine around the top. We did a bit more drumming as a class and talked about how the vibrations of the drum skin allow a drum stick to 'bounce' along the top, a technique that is used in drum rolls.
Next week is our last week of school before winter break, and we have two School Spirit Days planned:
Thursday, December 16: Ugly / Nice Sweater Day
Friday, December 17: Pajama Day
Stay tuned for next week's spelling words, and have a nice weekend!
Zac
