Monday, May 13

Today was pretty non-eventful. In Math, we got information on our new project, Life in a Geometrical Town. They are pretty excited about this one and worked hard on their rough drafts today. In Read Aloud, we began our new mystery read, The Westing Game. I really hope they like it as much as I do. In Reader's Workshop, they read, visited the library for our last day for check out and worked on their travel brochures. I can't wait to read these! For Writer's Workshop, we revisited persuasive writing and the kiddos answered the question, "What would you do for a Klondike bar?" This was a warm up for our last big writing piece where they need to write a persuasive piece as to why I should send them on to 5th grade. These should be good!! We completed our day with Mrs. Parker-Jones in the computer lab making avatars using Pixie. We will use these avatars for Voice Thread. We are going to be taking pictures on our field trip and then using this technology to share what we found out about economics.
