February 22nd

Here's what we did today:
Math-We learned about 3 dimensional shapes such as cubes, prisms and pyramids.  We talked about what the edges, faces, and vertices were for each shape. 

Word Study-Groups 1/2 got their new words today.  Group 1 is working on words with the -el, -le, -il, -al endings.  Group 2 is working on words that begin with either the hard or soft g and c sound. 

Reading-Students took a short assessment on a non-fiction piece about school uniforms and we also went over the February Tungsten together. 

Writing-We are all finished publishing!  Tomorrow we are sharing our biographies.

We also went over the Math Tungsten this afternoon.

Homework:
Math-WS 30.1, all problems--There is an optional extra credit assignment (5 points on the next test) due Thursday.  Using the 8 shapes on the re-teach side of tonight's homework, students need to find an object at home that has each shape, draw each object, and label each object with what shape it is.

Reading-Groups meet tomorrow.  For their group assignment, students need to complete the Ranking worksheet (not the rating side, just the ranking side) and fill in a box of their long line of paper for each chapter they read with a summary or a drawing from the chapter.  Read 100 minutes this week!

Writing-3 Writer's Notebook Entries

**Tomorrow is SPRING PICTURES!  Students may bring a prop if they like.

Have a nice night!
