September 20th

Here's what we did today:
Reading-We used an umbrella metaphor to talk about main idea and details in both fiction and non-fiction.  Groups also met.

Writing-We spent time discussing three particular types of leads: dialogue, action, setting.  Students chose a lead to begin the piece with.

Math-Students took the Chapter 3 Math test.  I will return these tomorrow.

Word Study-Groups 1/2 put their words in boxes while Groups 3/4 got their new lists.  All groups words are now on spellingcity.com.

We also did a Time for Kids today.  We don't switch for Science on Tuesdays because of LEAP. 

Homework:
Reading-Finish TFK if you need to.

Math-Practice multiplication facts.

Social Studies-States and capitals test is next Thursday!

Have a great night!
