Thursday 4-3-15

Today is music and writing day in LA/SS....what that means is
We have the OWLS for most of the day. We are listening to classical music and writing. First job is to finish our Beethoven writing piece and post on YWP. Then see what happens. Consider poetry. Consider drawing and poetry. Maybe a new letter.......

Tomorrow is our finale with a chamber orchestra concert just for us with Q and A after. At the end of the day we write reflections and maybe hear a few of the writing pieces.

Today's homework:
LA: edutyping - at least on lesson, more if you have time.  Freerice.com for 10 minutes
if no computer, you can do this tomorrow during read alone time.
Beethoven piece finished and posted (you can have the weekend if you need it.)

Math:
pages 15 and 16

Coming next week:
Gates McGinity Reading Assessment Monday during SS/Science time
Vermont Item Bank Bridges of NYS Wednesday during SS/Science time
(if you read this before 1:10, I mistakenly thought SBAC was next week, but it starts on May 12th)

We begin explorers study in social studies LA leading to our Bio Card which we complete maybe by Friday, but more likely the following Friday (I dream big and fast, but usually get real as time goes by)

Coming up mid May - argument writing starting with "Should Schools Serve Chocolate Milk?"
