Tues Sept 20 Daily Update: Daily Update: Our spelling word today was “PARTNERSHIP,” and we worked on three "Show, Not Tell" sentences describing “He was a good student.” After that, we completed our phonemic awareness exercises and doodled a shark. We then reviewed what good behavior on the mat looks like and mapped out stories we'll write this week using our 7 steps. Do you know all 7? (Character, problem, …)

Math: Grade 3 students extended skip counting sequences and predicted multiples in a sequence. Grade 1 and 2 continued rotating through their centers, focusing on making numbers, matching numbers with words and diagrams, and skip counting backward from 20. We also started evaluating how we performed at each center to make the process smoother.

After Lunch: We had Guidance with Mrs. Robichaud, who introduced Zoe and Molly Online, discussing how to recognize appropriate and inappropriate information online. Even though Zoe and Molly felt embarrassed, did they do the right thing in the end?

In PE: I impressed everyone with a magic hula hoop when Mr. Ross walked the K-1s upstairs. The class then worked on throwing and catching, and played some Newcomb ball.

Day End: We wrapped up the day by filling out our Book of Gratitude, reflecting on “Today I saw ____ being nice to ____ when he/she/they ____,” and signed our Home to School books. They should have reminders for: reading 10 minutes and the Home & School Meeting tonight at 6:30.

Picture of the Day: I spotted these 3 future geologists mining for ore at lunch!
