Feb. 17, 2017: Friday

Another week has flown by and it looks like it's going to be a beautiful weekend to enjoy the outdoors (unlike what they are saying for next weekend).

The day began with the usual sharing of upcoming weekend plans, followed by a spelling test. The students finally presented their conservation posters to close out the Language class.

    

Just before lunch we had Math and the students showed their knowledge of division on a quiz.

After lunch was Science. We reviewed the quiz from Wednesday and began the new unit on weather. The students defined and explained weather. We also compared temperatures from around the world.


Spelling Words for 2/24:
temperature, quarter, hour, Wednesday, minute, October, second, visit, happily, recreation, gather, animal, clothes, exact, snail oxygen, quietly

HOMEWORK:
1) Story Writing - please work on your story because I think it could take some time to make revisions. Please check Wednesday's blog for more details. Again, it is due on Wednesday, Feb. 22.

2) Frindle Comprehension questions - please copy these questions in your Reading notebook and answer them using complete sentences.
  a) Compare and contrast yourself and Nick. What similarities and differences are there between you two? (please give at least 2 for each).
  b) How did the story of the frindle get so huge?
  c) What needed to happen so that Mrs. Granger could say their battle was over and she could send him her letter?
  d) How do Mrs. Granger and Nick feel about each other?

3) Reading Log

NOTICES:
- Frindle quiz on Tuesday
- Spelling test on Friday
- Secret message - quack quack

Have a fun weekend!

Mr. Yaremchuk
