Be on stage at 6:15 tonight for readers’ theater.

Today we had to write lines. The reason we did this was because we are working on following directions. That means when the teacher tells us to do something, we do it without asking questions or telling stories. We went to computer lab and did SRA then went to keyboard practice. Tonight is our readers’ theater all about Texas. We are so EXCITED!

Readers’ theatre Thursday night at 6:15.

Today we went to music. We were able to pick out songs and sing them. During science we learned the life cycle of the frog. We are going to continue learning the life cycle of the frog over the next two weeks while we go to the science lab. We recorded our “I’m a Big Texan” song. Hopefully, it will be on our class website tomorrow.
