Wednesday Wonders!

Our child of the day, Jefferson, read to us from a Magic Tree House book. He is really enjoying reading this series. He has read quite a few according to his reading log on the WIKI and he really likes them! Keep up the GREAT reading, Jefferson!



After working on our word wall words, we looked at non fiction or expository writing topics and brainstormed ways we could narrow the topic down. We will work on this tomorrow as well as it will help us when we write.

In reading, we looked at a Time for Kids and made notes of the facts we learned in our own words. Tomorrow we will review this and then write a summary. Here are a few pictures of our "researchers!":








We connected our reading with writing and reviewed writing an expository piece. I read Recess at 20 below and then students wrote about what one of the seasons was like here in Bartlett. We will review these tomorrow and add descriptive words.

After lunch and recess, 1st graders learned more about telling time and 2nd graders worked on fractions. All students worked on number sense and problem solving.

Tomorrow we have art and our ELL enrichment time.

Have a GREAT evening and don't forget to READ....READ....READ!!!!
