 Hi parents,

We had a good day today! 

The spelling quiz was exceptional - I think we had more A's than ever before!

In the morning, the students did some more work with telling time. It was kind of an unofficial pop quiz just to make sure everyone was getting it, and it looks like they are. Once students have the basics of clock-reading, they inevitably start practicing it throughout their days, and I'm confident that at the very least, everyone knows it well enough to start doing that.

In writing, the students came up with different topic sentences for their upcoming informative Dinosaur Writing project. We talked about how a topic sentence should be broad and clear, but also engaging. Generally, ultra specific details and 'fun facts' are avoided in Topic Sentences. The students wrote three different sentences for their paragraphs, and chose their favourite of the three.

In the afternoon, we did Social Emotional Learning with Mr. Ripka, Daily LA, and Music.

Have a nice weekend,

Zac
