Students begin to read classic novel


The Christian Crystals had another productive day today!  Yay!

We started with a hidden picture.  It will be tomorrow's morning work, as well.  Some finished so they will be allowed to read silently.

We started a new book: Sarah, Plain and Tall.  I am excited about this.  The author is a friend of mine.  She is going to email  us next week. If you want a book autographed, you may buy the book and get it to me.  I will send it to her and she will gladly sign it. We read and discussed chapters 1 and 2.  Tonight's reading assignment is chapter 3 and 4.  These are short chapters.  We answered a few questions and went over some new vocabulary.

We also used clues to find words, but they had to be words that could be made using the letters in the word "football."  For example, one of the clues was "something worn on the foot."  The answer was "boot."  I knew they would like this, but they LOVED it!  They love using their minds!

In math we went to computers to take our STAR math test.  

Our last book orders before Christmas came home today.  They are due next Wednesday.  If there is something you want to get for your child for Christmas, just get the order to me and write "GIFT" on the order form.  When they come in I will email you and leave them bagged in the office for you!

We read about cranberries in science.
