Spelling test tomorrow.

Today we went to ready bodies with Mrs. Peery and Mrs. Lakin. In ready bodies we worked on superman and other activities that help us balance and get our bodies ready to learn. During lunch most of us ate hamburgers but some of us ate cheeseburgers. We reviewed a new no excuse word – said. Today, we began writing letters to one of our favorite characters, Tacky. Hopefully, our letters will be done by Friday so we can share them.

Our day also consisted of learning characteristcs of the Rockhopper penguin and the King penguin. We are going to use that information to write about our favorite penguin next week.

No school on Monday.

Today we went to math work places and worked on addition and subtraction. During independent reading we read books silently by ourselves. Some of us wrote stories on the computer. We added clip art pictures to our stories. As a class we finished our rebus story and we are going to hang it in the hall for others to read. Next week, we can create a rebus story by ourselves.
