Thursday, November 14

 Hi parents,

We had a pretty good day back at school after the break. The students did a lot of writing in their journals today, as they wrote about one specific event from their breaks. We're trying to move away from the 'list-style' narratives (I woke up, then I ate breakfast, then I played, then I napped,  etc.) and instead focus on developing one interesting event in detail. They actually did an excellent job with this task, I had expected it to take a lot longer than it did!

In math, we played "Place Value Bingo". We haven't explicitly studied place value for a while so I was super impressed by how well the class retained it.

In the afternoon, we did Daily LA and Spelling practice. We also previewed and discussed the front cover of our new novel study - Wish Tree.

Tomorrow is our spelling quiz. Based on what I saw today, some last minute practicing wouldn't hurt....

Have a nice night,

Zac
