Well we were back today (thank goodness) and it was business as usual. I thought the students might be a bit wiggly since they had that free day off but they picked up right where we left off! I was very impressed!
Grades will be coming home later this week so keep an eye out for those if your student didn't already show you the copy they have.
Today we spent some time adding another poem to our Poetry Notebook. The poem was called "My Tongue is Tasting Terrible" by Jack Prelutsky. It is about a kid that ate a variety of very "tasty" items and his tongue now tastes terrible and he's not sure why! Some things he ate were pickled snake, hippo chips, onion ice cream, and rhinoceros tofu, among others. Yikes! No wonder his tongue is not very appetizing!
We also learned a little bit more about the Oregon Trail and are preparing to depart from Independence, Missouri on Friday! Tomorrow we will take a look at the food pyramid and learn about different food groups and what foods are healthy for us during science. I can't wait! I love the food pyramid, even if the new version is a little harder to read. If you want to see the updated copy head over to www.mypyramid.gov and take a look! It isn't the same block look like they had when we were growing up, even though it tells similar information.
Homework today (for students who didn't finish in class) is Workbook pages 225-226, Phonics page 33-36 and reading Little House Chapter 4. Make sure you have it all tomorrow morning and we will see you then!
Have a great evening and don't get blown over by these intense winds!
