Hello,
I'm pecking this out from home. I had a car appointment after school.
Mrs. Farrand, school counselor, visited with us this afternoon. She explained the new school set up with two full time counselor now on staff. She also gave them a cooperation and communication activity that the class did pretty well at. Ask your child for details.
We chose new seats today. Using money from our classroom economy, some students chose to pay for their place in line. I won't offer too many of those opportunities before the desk rent is due. It looks like we have quite a few spenders. Rent needs to be paid.
Math class was all about estimating. Homework is a reflection of the class work, with front end estimation and rounding.
Our class government should be up and rolling soon. Elections will be held on Thursday for senate and house positions. I am serving as president for the first term. A student will take over those duties in a few weeks.
We had our spelling test today. We didn't get to it on Friday. There feels like less teaching time in fifth grade. I didn't think there was enough last year. With days like today (chorus and guidance), I've got to do a better job of making the moments count.
Thanks for reading,
Mr. Shea
