Have a great weekend

Hello,

Our first full week is behind us. We need work on our full day stamina, but I'm not seeing a huge dip just because it is Friday.

We worked on human number lines in math.  I gave them a pre-test afterwards.  It covers most of the place value stuff that we have reviewed over the past few days.

While the class was in music, I met with Ms. Hill's professor about Stephanie's student teaching.  She is going to be lead teaching for five consecutive days in about a month.  We will have to work her up to that quickly.  Four weeks will go fast.

Lina, the main character in The City of Ember, worked her first day as a messenger.  We will read about Doon's first day of work on Monday.  

Friday is sharing day for writing.  Six students took advantage and shared something that they have been working on with the class.  I hope to see that number grow in the coming weeks.

We started our study of crystals.  I hope to start growing some on Monday.

Thanks for reading.

Mr. Shea
