Technology Thursday!

Today was all about Sign of the Beaver.  We almost finished the book and we are planning to watch the movie tomorrow!  How exciting!  So, for the morning, before and after math, we read along with the audiobook.

During math the third graders took the Unit 4 test.  We had a 100% rate of "double checking work."  They really got the message about how truly important it is to check their work.  There is one JP, 101, for homework, due tomorrow.

After swimming, lunch and Spanish, we worked on our tagxedo creations (and some kids even made glogs) based on Sign of the Beaver.  Here is the wiki page where each pair of students created their page.  Please check them out, they are AMAZING!

AWESOME SIGN OF THE BEAVER TAGXEDO PAGES!

Thank you to everyone who turned in their paragraphs ON TIME!!  I cannot wait to read them!  Just seeing some of the creative Thanksgiving guests makes me very excited to read all the paragraphs!

Today was a wonderful day!  This morning we read Sign of the Beaver as usual.  Then, we worked on Storyworks.  We read informational text about wildfires in California.  Then, the kids wrote a paragraph based on what they read.  The paragraphs were graded and returned to the kids today.

After Engage, lunch and Engineering Technology we had math.  During third grade math we checked the review and checked JPs 99 & 100.  Please remember to study for tomorrow's test!
