It was a nice, quick day in room 19 today. We started out, as usual, checking and correcting homework. We went on to read our next story, “Business is Looking Up.” This is a pretty boring story, but it does help to add to the idea of writing a business plan. We’re working on that in Tech Center.
After recess, we did math. Today’s lesson involved using rounding and comparable numbers to estimate quotients. The students had a lot of time to get started on this pretty easy assignment, so homework is pretty light today.
After lunch, we read a chapter of Island of the Blue Dolphins. We then went to the Book Fair. I’m sure that was the highlight of the day for the students. No rain was the highlight of the day for the teacher.
Homework: (1) Do the Reading Strategies page for the “Business is Looking Up” story. (2) Do the study questions for the same story. (3) Complete “Estimate Quotients,” Envision Math pages 160-161.
