Tuesday, January 30

 Hi parents,

We had a great day today! The rollercoaster is finished:


In the morning, we talked about "literary genres" (fantasy, mystery, action, sci-fi, etc.) and the students wrote about their favourite types of books. Their work really exceeded my expectations. I wasn't sure how this prompt would go over, but the students took it seriously, and many of them wrote paragraphs (with topic sentences and everything!) without even being asked. It's awesome to see that those skills have stuck around.

In math, we learned about inches and feet, and measured lines scattered around the classroom using these units.

In the afternoon, we had Daily LA and Music. We also did another "Mad Minute" and graphed the scores.

Tomorrow is "Dress Up As Your Favourite Literary Character or Author" Day! 


Have a nice night,

Zac
