Fantastic Friday!

Today was FANTASTIC (other than the crazy schedule)!  We had a nice morning and it was spent on hearing a group of 7/8 students share their initiative 6 Million Pennies for 6 Million Lives.  Then, we worked on daily grammar and a little trivia from last week's Time for Kids.  After math we worked on cursive and had Media Center time.

During math, we began Unit 9, multiplication and division.  We check the final math box journal page (203) and then worked on page 206 in class.  The HW is JP 207, IXL and Fact Quizzes.  HL 8.9 (the Unit 9 Family Letter) needs to be signed by Monday.  HL 9.1 is an OPTIONAL EXTRA CREDIT CHALLENGE.  I explained (and completed) one problem in class and I know that some kids actually already finished the page and got them all correct! 

Lunch was very early today and then afterwards we had a short DEAR time and then switched for science.  After science, we went to complete our shift with the Kids Against Hunger food packing program.  We had a WONDERFUL and VERY REWARDING time!  After packing food, the kids went to art.  Our final activity of the day was Time for Kids.  Any unfinished worksheets are due on Monday.

I am SO EXCITED for the movie tomorrow!  I hope to see you there!

Thank you for reading and enjoy your evening!
