Terrific Tuesday

Today we...

  • worked on some Halloween grammar.
  • created some beautiful sugar skull art.
  • corrected last night's math homework and discussed "best" strategies.
  • watched some videos and read about the origins of Halloween.
  • got ready for tomorrow's estimation lesson. We used rounding and compatible numbers.
  • turned into Math Detectives and Solved the Mystery of the Tricking Treat. We had to solve puzzles, and  use both our math skills and deductive reasoning.
  • worked with a partner on a vocabulary choice board to help us get to know this week's words.
  • went to lunch and recess
  • came back to 201. We talked about what to expect for the rest of the week (spelling and reading tests on Thursday, the Science Leaf Lab on Thursday, and a special assembly tomorrow and finishing up Tall Tales.
Ask you kids about the origins of this phrase......


This evening at home....
  • enjoy trick or treating or a night with family.
  • don't eat too much candy!
  • Happy Halloween! There is no regular homework tonight.
We need real leaves for Thursday's Science Lab. Kids, you can bring in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors: red, green, yellow and brown.
