Class finishes a book they love, Christmas in Camelot


We had a very productive day! 

We started by making our spelling words out of Play-Doh.

We finished out Christmas in Camelot.  They loved the book.  They were able to pick out the important parts and answer questions that happened early in the book.  Their improvement in these skills are partly due to their academic improvement.  But also because they loved the story!  How many of us read a book we don't enjoy?  

We did some vocabulary practice and review.  We also answered some questions on paper.  

We made sentences using word pieces.  We discussed how letters make words, and words make sentences.  They made several, then had to write them correctly on a lined piece of paper.  They only had to write two.

In math we did a mixed practice page.  We had some questions that dealt with concepts we have already covered, and some we haven't.  We worked in groups of three, and I walked around to see how each group solved uncovered problems.  The discussions I heard were great.  They were on task and actually discussing multiple ways of finding answers.

There are some important notes in the Wednesday folders.  Please go over them.
