We had another great day in third grade! My crystals
are really maturing!
We started out in groups doing our word sort. Each
group has given letters and they make 10-15 words using only the letters
provided. Then they have to find the word that uses every letter given
them. Lots of thinking/problem solving going on!
In reading we reviewed suffixes, concentrating on
"ing" and "ed" today. We also finished Lulu's
Mysterious Mission. It was enjoyed by all. The first question
asked was if there were anymore. That makes me happy. There are
four in the series. I only have class sets of the first one and this
one. We have read both of those. But I have copies of numbers 2 and
4. We then summarized the book using a foldable organizer. The first
section had the title and 2 main characters. The second was labeled
"First." The third section was labeled "Next."
And the last, "Then." Not only did this help them in writing
their summarizations, it showed how those words are cles in sequencing and
retelling stories.
We did some pre-cursive practice today. We made loops
and did some over and under practice. They are excited. We will
attempt out first letter tomorrow.
In math we worked more with "In and Out"
charts. I have a large one in the floor that I have taped. We
worked in a class group setting today.
Thanks to sponsors, their book for January came in
today!
