Small Group Work

Well, room 19 was hit by something today. I don't know if it was H1N1 or not, but we had 9 students out of 32 out sick. I missed the students who were gone, but only 23 students has its charms, too.

Despite the near-plague situation, we had a pretty fine day. We again had library on Monday this week because Mrs. Koneff went to a conference last Friday and she was able to give us a make-up slot. We corrected the reading test test and the math test. The latter is already one the gradebook, and the results were quite helpful to the students' averages. We went out the PE. It was a pretty usual Monday.

This is Red Ribbon Week, so we will be talking a lot about drug use and abuse this week. We started by discussing the legal stuff today. We read a chapter in the health book about prescription and over-the-counter drugs. The students started making a poster about proper use of legal drugs, and they will be working on this for the next day or two.

Homework: (1) Write spelling words in syllables. (2) Do "Word Knowledge" and "Vocabulary from Context". (3) Do "Multiply" pages 90-91 of Envision Math.
