Just Another Manic Monday

Hey everyone!  It was a very busy day!  

In Science, we reviewed HEAT by completing a crossword with partners.

In Reading, we previewed this week's vocabularly words. Then, we listened to the story from the book.  We got our reading logs, spelling lists, and spelling packets.  For the last HOUR of reading, students had the option of working alone or with a partner on ten short-answer questions.  If they didn't finish these questions in class, they should be compelted from homework.

We worked on organizing our writing today during Writing class by writing about what we did yesterday, or what we've done so far today.  We are trying to make sure our writing pieces have a beginning, middle, end, and plenty of transition words to organize our thoughts!

In Social Studies, students were able to finish up their WHERE IN THE WORLD AM I? packet in class.  We've had 4 days to work on this in class.  I handed out a review sheet to help students prepare for tomorrow's social studies test.  Tomorrow's test is a two day event.  The test is open-book.  Students will have all of social studies class time on Tuesday to complete the test.  Tests may be taken home on Tuesday evening to work on at home or have a parent check over.  Tests do not have to be taken home.  Students will have class time on Wednesday to finish their tests.  If they are done with their tests, they may use Social Studies class time to work on other homework or read.   Social Studies test will be due at the end of class on Wednesday.

In math, students were given a study guide for Unit 1.  STudents attempted to complete the study guide on their own.  Then, we reviewed the entire study guide as a class and went over the answers one by one. All students should have all the correct answers for these questions.  If students review their study guide and know how to perform the tasks on their study guide, they should be successful on their test.
