Another busy day at Liberty School! After students returned from P.E. and music, Mia read If You Give a Pig a Party...a classroom favorite. She did a wonderful job, then led us through the classroom promise and calendar activities. Thanks, Mia!
We then worked on some number sense activities and algebra problems before moving into the math workshop. At 10, we were surprised by a mystery reader: Alisha's mother. She read The Velveteen Rabbit, which we all enjoyed! Alisha was so excited to see her mom. If you want to be a mystery reader, we still have some time left. Just drop me an email and we will set it up.
We continued with the math workshop working on fractions, data analysis, and number sense activities.
In readers' workshop we learned that readers retell about the problem in a story. We will continue on Monday with the parts of retelling before we move into synthesis.
In writing, I read the book: Trouble on the T-Ball Team by Eve Bunting. We read like writers and looked at the writers craft. We saw how the author took many small moments to build excitement into the one BIG moment. We then wrote our own stories.
Remember there is no school tomorrow, Friday, May 1. Enjoy the weekend and READ, READ, READ, READ! And then...read some more!
