Thank goodness

Our day started with our Math 4 Today assessment. Only 3 students earned 10/10...that's more than last time but these problems aren't very challenging... Hopefully, we'll have better news to report next week. In Writer's Workshop, we wrote freely and/or blogged. After Art, we read from The Beaded Moccasins. Not much is happening right now. Mary is acclimating to her new "life" and Mrs. Stewart is going to be traded to Sequin for muskets! In Reader's Workshop, we completed our critical thinking questions about the poem we read the other day. We had indoor recess once again but the teachers on duty tell me that our class is the most well behaved! In Math Workshop, we looked at fractions in a different way. Instead of fractions of a whole (like a pan of brownies), we worked with fractions of a set (1/2 of the class are girls, how many girls?) We also completed some review problems with ordering fractions and fractions on a number line. Finally, we worked on our inventions and pitches for our inventions to conclude our day.
