r 9/10, 2008Students received a reminder sheet for their "I Can's"/Walk-Aways for term 1. This should be kept in the binder. (Some students already received those sheets at the parent-teacher conferences.)
Today was a day to hand in reading logs for the week.
Students received their homophone tests and spelling retakes back graded. They analyzed what they had missed and still needed to study from the homophone test.
Most frequently missed: desert/desert/dessert
I got lost in the desert.
Never desert your post if you are a soldier.
Let's have chocolate pudding for dessert.
1. We played "The Shell Game." Small groups attempted to describe a seashell so
exactly that other students could pick it out from similar shells.2. Students worked on writing their rough drafts for their personal narratives. We will type those in the computer lab on Monday/Tuesday.
