Hello,
I blame it on the weather, but maybe it is due to the fact that there wasn't any MEA testing today. Quite a lively bunch though. Even during read aloud, The Cay by Theodore Taylor, they were a rambunctious group. Timothy and Phil-eep are caught in a big hurricane and I needed to keep redirecting our focus so others could hear the story. It isn't because they aren't interested. It is that sometimes they get a little too interested and want to provide visuals or commentary to the story, without sharing in a respectful manner. Better too much energy than not enough, I always say though.
We wrote get well cards to our classmate Derrick this afternoon. I think he will enjoy reading them. He is recovering from a burst appendix. We're not sure when he will be back, but we wish him a speedy recovery.
I think that most biome museum projects are ready to roll. I plan on opening up the museum tomorrow afternoon. If it the children choose, we may open it up for parents on Monday.
We started writing stories based on The Mysteries of Harris Burdick by Chris Van Allsburg. Ask your child what their plans are for their story.
We were out on the playground for math. We drew parallel lines, perpendicular lines, and different angles and shapes. I'm hoping this nice weather allows for more of that to start the day.
This has seemed like an extremely long week. We'll wrap it up tomorrow with a class full of docents.
Have a good night.
Mr. Shea
