OK, sorry for not writing yesterday. I was really, really tired and just plain forgot about it. I hope that did not cause any confusion with homework.
Today we worked a lot on our holiday stories. As you probably know, the students had to write a story about Christmas or Hanukkah or some other seasonal theme. They will be turning these into picture books – we’ll bind them and put nice homemade covers on them – and they will be sharing their stories with the class and the parents at the holiday party on Thursday. So, far, many of the stories are just wonderful. I hope as many parents as possible can be here Thursday to hear them.
We did a couple other things. We read another chapter of Island of the Blue Dolphins today. We talked about the Mexican War of Independence and how it changed California. We had Buddy Reading with our kindergarten friends. And we practiced division.
Homework: (1) Math, pages 174-175. Please be sure to do the enrichment activity on the back of the sheet too. Several students were missing that this morning. (2) Do the “Mexican California” worksheet.
