This week was the first full week of school. We started our first spelling
assignment, we did pop art, and our first quiz of the school year in Science,
and someone broke Eddie Bonesy’s jaw. Today for lunch is bosco sticks.
The word of the week is composition. Students are excited to finish their
Bible minibook. All of us are getting new jobs but some people will keep
their job and switch the week after that. More next week from Ryleigh and
Caileigh!
From Mrs. R:
Thank you so much for attending our parent informtion meeting last night. Students
now have over a full week under
their belts and a sense of how classes and transitions go. We are
getting better at routines and organization with fewer
reminders. Students are learning how to think first of others (pushing
in chairs, wearing masks in mixed settings, helping distribute hymnals in church). We have found lots to do at indoor recess in this crazy heat!
We are learning....
Religion - Law/Gospel, genres of the Bible
G and T Math - Double digit multiplication, Area and Perimeter, supporting our thinking
Social Studies - Map tools, Latitude and Longitude
Literature: Using annotation tools in Common Lit as we make predictions
Science: Electricity
Art: Line, Pop art
English: Types of sentences, prepositions

A peek into Math Discussion
"Shouldn't 28 x 16 and 16 x 28 be the same? But they don't match."
"How could you model this? Is there a
picture you think of?"
"Hmm, that looks like a lot more than 100 and some chairs!!!"
"What am I missing? How did you do it?"
"I checked my calculating and I think I did it all right."
"How does this model show the parts of the problem?"
"Oh - you multiply the 10 by the 20 and then the 10 by the 8. You multiply the different place values!"
"I see now! I forgot the 0 that makes it the 20 x 16 instead of 2 x 16."
