Friday- You're not here?  

Posted by: Unknown in ,

Today will be a great day in our class!  We'll be meeting our buddies for the first time.  I'll be sure to put your buddy with a friendly third grader since you'll be out of town.

This morning, after we take the Wordly Wise and Spelling tests, we'll head to Mrs. Driscoll for keyboarding practice.

MATH:  Please complete the math boxes on page 33 of your journal.
ROTATION: We will hold rotation early today (so we have time for our buddies this afternoon).  While working with me, students continued to read in the chapter book Manatee Blues.  We read pages 4-15 .

During seatwork, students worked on their sea creature glog.  See the power point below for an idea of how students have been ecouraged to take their notes about the sea creature and turn them into sentences:

(Be sure to check the last slide, which tells you how you'll be graded.)

Essentially, you will take all of your notes on your creatures looks and put them into amazing sentences.  Then you'll take your notes about what it eats...and turn those notes into sentences.  My hope is that your sentences will turn into a fun-to-read and interesting paragraph. :)

After PE and Lunch, we will have our final rotation before packing up to meet our buddies.  I'm so sorry you'll miss it, but I know you'll have a good time with your family.  Check out the blog later for information about what you'll miss Monday.  For now, you can start learning the new Wordly Wise words by checking out the following:

This week we will be working on learning 15 new vocabulary words in our Wordly Wise workbook.  After the students are introduced to the words on Monday, they will spontaneously practice them throughout the week by playing games with each other.

A lot can also be gained by utilizing the resources on the Third Grade Links page.  (Look for the Wordly Wise link.)


One of my favorite links is Brainflips.  It's an amazing, interactive flashcard site where students can practice their newly assigned words every other week.  I hope you'll check it out!
