Sign and return report cards tomorrow. Spelling test tomorrow. Last day for canned food drive tomorrow.

As usual, we started our day off in morning meeting then quietly came to the room to unpack. Then we came to the floor and did morning message. Our message was about the weather and what it might do today. We identified and circled adjectives, added endings, no excuse words, and compound words in our message. Next, we went to our desk and got out our dry erase boards, markers, and erase and speed wrote the word “said.” To get ready for tomorrow’s spelling test we played a game called Sparkle. After Sparkle we worked on our writers’ workshop stories. Triana finished publishing her book about her friends and shared it with us. We went to the rug after writers’ workshop and read Thanksgiving With the Tappletons. It was a story about a family that everything went wrong for Thanksgiving dinner and they thought their dinner was ruined. However, they problem solve and ate liverwurst sandwiches for their feast. Then we did reading centers. After lunch we did number corner followed by Around the World, an addition game we really enjoy. Then we had character education when we learned about courage and self-control. PE was next then some of us went outside for R2W celebration.
