We completed Day 3 of Centers this morning. The students are continuing to do a wonderful job making connections with the material they are reading.

After recess, we worked through 3 stations in math focusing on estimation. Students worked with compatible numbers at one station. At the next station, students could use either front end rounding or compatible numbers. The third station was on the computer/Ipods.

During 6+1 Writing, we are continuing to talk about transition words. I modelled for the students a How To...paragraph. Students then used a template and completed a "How To Clean My Room" paragraph using transition words for each step.  After lunch, students chose a topic of their own and wrote a How To paragraph.

Students than had Phys Ed with Mr. Leidl.

We wrapped up the day by discussing our review for the Social Studies test on Monday, October 29.
