Oct. 25, 2016: Tuesday

Only 3 more days till All Saints Day!!

Today was a super busy day in the grade 3 classroom, and here's what we did:
  • Language Arts/Reading - reviewed the story elements (character, setting, problem) and wrote an outline for a Halloween story. The Cafe menu strategy we practiced was how to "Make Mental Pictures" when reading. We also used object pronouns in sentences.
  • Math - the students practiced subtracting across zeroes
  • Social Studies - we read Jenny and the Government Fairy again and made inferences about the story. These inferences involved doing some critical thinking.
  • Science - the students defined and gave examples of defensive adaptations. We also observed numerous animal defensive adaptations.
Secret message of the day: Trick or treat, smell my feet.

HOMEWORK:
1) Math p. 32 (please only complete the even numbers: Ex. 2, 4, 6, 8, etc)
2) Language Arts - please write 7 sentences that include both an object pronoun, and a spelling word

NOTICES:
- tomorrow grades 1-3 will have the opportunity to buy some Halloween decorations, games, art, puzzles, etc. The prices are between $5 - $100.
- small subtraction quiz on Thursday
- PE day, please wear your PE clothes

Enjoy your evening.

Mr. Y
