Hello! It is absolutely beautiful outside today! We started off the day with morning meeting in Spanish. From there, we did writing workshop and Mrs. Helfer's class finished their All About books! Right now they are working on a piece of writing that interests them.

In Reading Workshop, we reviewed some of the character traits of Ira in Ira Sleeps Over. The students said that he was scared, embarassed, happy, confused, and upset. Each student had to pick one trait, and go back and write in their journals why they feel that this trait describes Ira the best.

We got all 4's in lunch today!

The students went out into the hallway in groups to look at their seeds in a bag. Almost all of them are growing! While some students were in the hallway, the others were working on their word study- look, say, cover, write, check. Once this was done, we all went outside to enjoy this lovely weather!!!

After recess, we came inside to work on math. We cut out the family portraits, and got into groups to organze them from youngest to oldest. We will be doing more with this tomorrow. Enjoy the weather!
