11th-13th Week= Mrs. Jones forgot her homework!

I am so sorry for the delay in posting! Here are a few things we have been working on:

We played "Decimal Monster Dash" on Halloween and the students did a great job! They were very creative with their monsters. 

Today they played "Decimal Turkey Dash", and I was very impressed with their turkeys. 

In Religion, we have been watching "I Am Second" videos, and finishing up Unit 2. The past few weeks we have really been focusing on Martin Luther and other leaders God used from the Bible. We will finish Unit 2 next week, and have an assessment soon after.

We wrapped up decimal multiplication this week, and will begin decimal division next week. I believe we have started a tradition with the Decimal Dash. The students are already wondering what they will draw for Christmas! 

We finished Mixed-Up Files, and I have to say that the museums were AMAZING! I love seeing each student's creativity shine! We focused on non-fiction texts again, and went more in-depth with connecting with them. We have now began our first fantasy book of the year, The BFG, by Roald Dahl. He was an interesting man! We read a biography about him, and now are a little way into the book. Our poetry unit is complete, and I enjoyed reading all the student's poetry books. We are now learning about verbs. We made an "Angry Verbs" board that shows "Angry Birds" as action verbs, and the pigs as helping verbs. We will talk about verb tenses next week. 

We also wrapped up biomes this week in Science. This week we will be going to the McWane Center, and starting our brainstorming for our project. 

We are still making our way through the 13 Colonies in History. 

Hope you all have a good weekend! I will see you bright and early Monday morning for the field trip! 

For a bonus punch, tell me what you want our "Celebrate Science" project to be. 

Love, 

Mrs. Jones
