As small as our class is, I think they did a fantastic job singing. They were loud and clear and I loved that song! They have also handled inside recess pretty well the past 3 days in a row.
Math-
Today was our first day of our section on telling time, chapter 7 covers money and time. We reviewed the hour hand and the minute hand. They were able to find the correct time to the hour and half hour. Some things they can practice at home are determine if a coin is a penny, nickel, dime, or a quarter by looking at either the front or the back and telling time with an analog clock.
Reading-
We'll start having a reading and spelling tests on the same day again. Our next tests will be next Friday. They are currently reading a short biography about the young Helen Keller. They will continue to practice understanding words with suffixes, determining main ideas and details, and finish their opinion paper. I'll work on their fast testing next week.
Science and Social Studies-
During science they'll make balloon rockets and in social studies we will continue studying renewable and nonrenewable resources. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great weekend!
