- This morning we practiced our missed words and took a Riggs quiz.
- For math we practiced the concept in 119 and 120 and they are homework for the weekend. We also have printed lyrics of the song "Meters, Liters, and Grams" so we can practice and perform it for the USO show on the last day of school. Most students in math want to do it and will need a parent's signature to perform.
- We then did CPR and students share their expectations of the upcoming weekend. After all of the sunny day expectations, I told them to expect rain!!
- The last group performed their skit explaining the difference between the Old Immigrants and the New Immigrants.
- We began punctuation in our Warriner's Grammar book and took notes and did an exercise on the semicolon.
- World Language, students took their planners and should have homework.
- We had a guest speaker, Mrs. Schroedl come in and talk to us about what it was like adopting a child from China. We learned it was a lot of paper work and they ask extremely strange questions of the person, even if she is five, coming into the United States. It was enlightening and much appreciated. Her daughters name was Xingqing and is now Lexie. Hopefully another parent will come and talk to us about immigration next week as we wrap up our unit.
- Lunch
- P.E./ no art today
- We had about 10 minutes of silent reading, student choice. We then learned about Mark Twain and a little bit of history on King Henry VIII, the London Bridge, and hereditary positions. We also talked about all of the versions of "The Prince and the Pauper" students have seen. I forgot to tell them that we will have a Prince and Pauper feast at the end of this book and parents will be invited. We then finished the day with reading Chapter 2 and making a postcard based on the imagery in the chapter. Students are to read Chapters 3 & 4 over the weekend.
- Students also received progress reports in Math and Language Arts and should get them signed and bring them back on Monday.
