Friday, February 21
We started our day with Circle, which included our regular sharing Circle and our weekly compliment Circle, Words of the Day defining, and the passing of Ducky and Goosey. We had a solid chunk of Drop Everything and Read time, during which students were very engaged in independently reading a text of their choosing. In Math we reviewed how division and multiplication facts are related and summarized strategies for solving basic division facts. (Here, once again, are links to online multiplication and division basic facts practice, which would be useful for reinforcement at home.) Then students completed basic division fact questions before moving on to two different problems: the Four People Travel Puzzle and Leo the Rabbit. We finished up and did our storyboards for chapter 15 of The Boundless, which was jam-packed with exciting events! The day concluded with an assembly in preparation for Pink Shirt Day, which is Wednesday, February 26. I was so impressed with the student from our class who shared her writing about kindness in front of the whole school! Way to go!
A reminder that I will be asking students on Monday whether they will be participating in the math contest or not, so please help them make that decision over the weekend! More information about the contest can be found on Wednesday's blog post.
