Wednesday

This morning, we played a game called Back to Back in math. It was about students figuring out sums and addends.  Also, Mrs. Jones came in to teach us about money. We learned some fun facts!
In writing, we learned about dictionaries and all the things you can find in one!  Students had to look at their areas of expertise and figure out what terms they would need to define for the reader of their piece of writing about this topic. They had a ton of fun looking at the dictionary! In word work, I finally introduced this week's words. This afternoon, we read The Three Snow Bears by Jan Brett and we talked about how it was the same and different from Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Students did work jobs while some read about Martin Luther King Jr. Finally, our nonfiction convention of the day was Sidebar.
