Getting Fit

Today we had another brisk walk through Hancock Park. Mrs. Caruso sets quite a pace for us! It's amazing to see how much fitter the students have become over the course of the year. We're working on keeping a steadier pace and keeping our attention fixed on the people in front of us and behind us so that we can move together smoothly as a group. As I tell the class, walking in line has all the skills important for driving - staying in you lane, watching the cars in front of you and behind you, and keeping the right distance, neither too close nor too far.

We corrected the math tests today. The results are online at www. teacherease.com. I think all of the parents have access. If you have forgotten your log on or your password, let me know right away so I can allow you to check. The test were basically good, though some students need to continue working on the idea of equivalent fractions.

We finished the Cobbler's Song today. Next week we'll do the King Midas story and start our culminating activities, including the test.

Homework: Finish any classwork not completed today.
