Friday 11-7-14

A regular fun Friday.

Note: The pictures are in, but Mr. Meadows took them and then left for a dentist appointment without handing them out, so....Monday they will come home. Sorry about that.

We started in the lab posting our second drafts on YWP. Now others can read and give comments. We will work to finish these on Wednesday next week.

The trimester only has two weeks left (then it's Thanksgiving Break!)
We need to:
finish our narrative
take a narrative assessment
take a reading Istation assessment
do a read aloud test (one minute of read aloud)
Finish a Vermont and Me Social Studies assessment (Fantastic only)
and that's just LA and Social Studies.
I bet Mr. Meadows has a few more to kick in to the mix.

In social studies, each group (Bushmen, All Stars, Tamaris and Purple Prickly Piranahs) presented an overview of their hunting gathering society and how the environment influenced their culture. Next week we begin to anaylize how living in Vermont affects us.

Kids are off to PE/Music followed by Unified ARTS (COG)
When they return we read silently (USSR - uninterrupted sustained silent reading) only I'm going to interrupt a few to finish narratives and CLEAN OUR CUBBIES (they are getting a bit out of hand and possibly coming to life.)

Ms. Lamb will collect journals today. Remember, NANOWRIMO novelists share your novel with Ms. Lamb in place of Monday, Tuesday and Thursday journal writes.

See you next week. Enjoy the weekend.
