Another full day of learning: vocabulary, fact and opinion, fractions, the "tion" ending of words

We had a successful day today.

Book orders went home yesterday and are due the 18th of October. 

We read a story, discussed the vocabulary, and answered only five questions. It was a great story about stepping out of your safety zone.

We also worked more with fact and opinion. 

We worked with fractions today. We discussed the parts of a fraction, the job of each part, and wrote them in words, standard form, and drew pictures to represent the fraction. We had a mini lesson today on the ending "tion." We sounded out the word fraction, so that they could "help me" spell it. When we got to the t, I told them that the last four letters represented different sounds. When I showed them, they were able to come up with a lot of words that end with the "shun" sound, spelled tion.

We are collecting diapers this month, as well as games for our class basket that will be auctioned off at the carnival.

Parent teacher conferences are October 9th and 10th. I am going to try something different. Please send times/days that you cannot meet, and I will work around those. They begin at 3:30 and end at 6:45. Please let me know by note, text, or email. Thank you!
