Theme Filled Cupcake Thursday

Here are some of today's plot points, in chronological order:

  • we did a morning math, language and brainiac warm up
  • we aced our Code Yellow drill
  • we went to Music
  • we learned all about Theme Vs. Main Idea: we worked on a group activity with task cards, we created a poster, we took a Kahoot quiz and we celebrated with cupcakes.
  • we corrected last night's math homework and dove deeper into Partial Products.
  • we went to the Science Lab and found the volume of irregular shaped objects
  • we began a second attempt at creating an accurate  graph

This evening at home...
  • Reread The Power of Wow. and The Kid's Guide To Money.
  • Complete the Text to To Text, Compare Concepts writing found on page 129.
  • Complete the Go Math homework and practice for lesson 2.7
  • finish your graph if you have not done so already.
  • Kids, you have a reading test tomorrow. Study those vocabulary words.

Thanks to Super Teacher Deb Hanson for providing the inspiration for today's lesson!
