Daily Update:
We started the day with morning announcements, then got to work – but not for long! Our song played over the radio, and we paused everything to listen. (Not to brag, but we sounded fantastic!) Today’s spelling word was “remember,” and for Show Not Tell, our sentence was “She was tired.” We wrapped up our last attempt at a haunted house in Doodle and completed the Week 8 Thursday Haggerty listening games. Miss Brown supervised while I added final touches to our October recap video, and students finished their Halloween booklets from yesterday.

After Recess:
We skipped math today for our school-wide October assembly. We went over some school rules, learned that tonight’s corn maze game is canceled due to the rain, and were informed it won't be rescheduled as the field will be mowed down this weekend. We watched the October Recap Video (now posted on the Napan Facebook page) and discussed the upcoming Remembrance Day Ceremony and our next skating event. Back in class, we continued our conversation about the importance of Remembrance Day.

Lunch:
Due to the rain, we stayed inside for lunch, and everyone in class joined Lego Club. The theme of the day? Dream houses!

After Lunch:
We watched a few YouTube videos about Remembrance Day and read more of *The One and Only Ivan*. It seems Ivan is trying to hatch a plan to move Ruby from her cage to a zoo. I’m not sure how a gorilla can pull that off, but he’s certainly thinking hard!

PE:
We stayed indoors for PE and did basketball relays and drills. With red faces and sweaty hair, everyone came back to class looking like they’d had a blast – and we all know how *uncompetitive* this class is!

End of Day:
To end the day, we filled out our Home to School books and included a reminder about the canceled corn maze. We completed a Remembrance Day word search and enjoyed a solid nine minutes of free-choice time on the tablets – the perfect way to wrap up the week. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Picture of the Day:
Our song played live on the radio, and all work stopped as we listened with pride!
