So yesterday was a "snow day" or rather "freezing rain" day. I hope there aren't too many this winter, but it's always better to be safe rather than sorry. During these days students usually have the opportunity to ask any questions about what we are learning about, do some arts and crafts, play with math manipulatives and even watch a movie.
Today is our official "Movie Day". Most of the class has chosen to watch Elf which will be held in the gym. Our own classroom will be a host to those who are watching the Smurfs. The school has provided students with popcorn at no cost! Yum! We will also use some of our time today to clean out our desks, cubbies and lockers so that they are nice and tidy when we come back after the holidays.
Tomorrow is the last day of classes before the break. In the morning I hope for us to be able to do some arts and crafts, and there is a character education assembly where some of the class will be presenting our collaboration acivity that we did with our reading buddies. Then, after lunch we will be having our own "party" where there will be some snacks and games for everyone to play. Feel free to bring in an appropriate board game or playing cards.
I am afraid with everything that is going on we won't be able to get to our spelling test this week - as I haven't even given out the words yet! Spelling will resume after the holidays. A Monday Mission is being sent home for the holidays as well as three dinner dazzle words. Independent reading journals are due on Friday and both the math test and social studies test need to come back to school signed as soon as possible. There is a Math Re-Test today for some who wish to improve their mark!
