Tales of Tuesday
As promised, our Monday Child of the Day: Sahiti reading The Lion and the Mouse! Wonderful reading, Sahithi! We did not have a child of the day today as our student was absent. Natalie was a great helper, though!
Thanks again to Mashal's mother for being our mystery reader yesterday! We are enjoying rereading the books you left for us!
Today we read the book The Stranger in the Woods. Then we watched a DVD of the authors talking about the writing process, the revision process, and the editing process. Writing the book took almost 20 years and from the time they began just the editing process, it took another 10 months. Although we want to finish ours just a bit quicker, we learned that writers take the time to make their writing better.
We read the book Something Beautiful today and learned more about making inferences. We also went to the library.
In math, 2nd graders worked on geometry and 1st graders worked on breaking numbers apart and putting them back together: number sense.
