This morning Mrs. Ahn taught us about another Habit of Mind - Self Control. We learned about having patience and waiting our turn. We played two games to practice being patient.
Today we also had literacy switches where we continued to work on mastering new words in Word Work and practicing our writing stamina while doing Work on Writing. In guided reading, we are applying our strategies while reading books at our level and expanding our vocabulary through reading and discussion.
In Science we talked about why papers absorb water differently. We noticed that paper towel, tissue paper, writing paper and wax paper are made up of different materials - especially the wax paper. In math, we played a place value game called First to 50 and back to 0. The game helped us practice adding and subtracting using tens and ones blocks. At the end of the day, we had in-class gym where we did Go Noodle - Fresh Start Fitness and Cosmic Yoga.
Thank you to everyone for returning the Arts Commons forms. We are getting very excited!
