Tomorrow the students will be making Valentine boxes or envelopes. Students need to bring any supplies they want to use. We do have construction paper to make envelopes. Thanks to the parents who have volunteered to help next Thursday afternoon with our party.
Today we finished our story about, The Big Wave. It was excellent. Now we are reading the entire book as the students want to know what happened. We also studied prepositions and prepositional phrases. We will work a little more on those tomorrow. Also we have reading and spelling tests tomorrow.
In math we continue to work on ordering and comparing mixed numbers. We had a problem today that kind of surprised me. But we decided that with some critical thinking skills, looking at the different fractions and what they really meant, we could still put them in order without finding the same denominators. As we hadn't dealt with the before, it was a bit of a wake -up call to use our critical thinking skills when we aren't sure of an answer. In science the students are learning about the different states of matter. It is a fun lesson.
Remember, book orders need to be in by Tuesday. The code is LJ87V if you want to order online.
