Terrific Tuesday!

Today was a terrific day!  This morning we began with reading.  We read from Cosmic.  After math, I showed students how to access their H:drive from home using remote access.  Here is the VIDEO.  We finished up the morning with work in our verb packet.

In third grade math we began Unit 4 - multiplication!  The kids are already doing great a recognizing patterns!  The HW tonight is to finish JP 80 and complete HL 4.1.  Also, the new Tuesday fact tests are in today's math blog post.  Also, I re-sent all the IXL usernames and passwords today so PLEASE spend at least 60 minutes per week on this wonderful site!

After swimming, lunch and Spanish, we worked on the natural disaster projects.  Most students are now finished with the recording.  The remainder of the day was spent reading Cosmic.

WE WILL NEED SALT DOUGH FOR FRIDAY INSTEAD.  WE WILL NOT MAKE OUR MAPS TOMORROW, WE WILL MAKE THEM ON FRIDAY!


Thank you for reading and have a wonderful evening!
