Hi families,
It was a spectacular day! For the greeting, we did high five. Also, Joshua was the person of the day. For specialists we had music and library. Also, at the end of the day we did a math exit ticket. We also did a math sprint. We had to do minus. Also our elf is on the flag. We finished Horrible Harry in our literature circle. Joshua got to play on the iPad. He played Sushi Monster.

Hi Families,
Today was a busy day. We liked building Santa getting stuck in the chimney. I think I did my best writing. I said, "plop" when Santa came out of the chimney. My Santa was different from the normal Santa, I put brown pants, green and red for the little cuffs, and blue for the boots. Even though I did red for the chimney, it is the same. We listened to some music carols by fifth grade band students. One was Old Saint Nicholas and the other one was Jingle Bells. We read a Scholastic news about evergreen trees. They are called evergreen because they never loose their green leaves.
Have a good day!

Hi Families,
We had a lot of fun in room 217 like playing a math game with memory cards. I only got 4 matches. Noah won the game. In gym we played star wars. You sit down on the scooter and you ride everywhere. If you get hit with the ball you're out. I also got to play on the class iPad. I read two Amelia Bedilia books I brought from my house. We learned about infrences. To make an inference, you know and what the book says to figure out what is happening in the story. Ms. Petzold says it is like reading between the lines. We had indoor recess and during it we watched the Magic School bus and draw. I made two paper footballs. Tonight is our last night of math homework before break. We had a mystery reader which was Ms. Norman from the other room. She read us The Biggest Snowman Ever by Steven Kroll. We read all our non-fiction books and we were checking them (revising and editing) and I stayed at my seat for a long time editing my book. Then we had to go to snack. We are going to have a fun, fun day tomorrow. We are going to the auditorium two times. Have a good day!

Hi Families,
Today we had library and music. We did an easy math test on place value. We read A Snowy Day. After, we wrote we thought Peter and his friend did next after the story ended. I think they had a snowball fight because in the story he didn't get to do it because he didn't think the bigger kids would let him. We practiced reading a calendar and did a sheet on it.

Hi Families,
We had an awesome day today! Tomorrow is going to be our classes day on the big playground. Everyday for writing we do animal research. Today we wrote our About the Author page. Today we did pirate math. I am at the mixed addition -- almost at subtraction! We had art and we are going to make the polar express. Next week we are going color the background. I liked to make the train. When we got back from art we read a Scholastic News with a partner. I worked with Matthew because he picked me to work with. Matthew is my bestest friend. In math, we reviewed what we've learned. The four different ways to write a number are unit form, standard form, expanded form, and word form.
Have a great day!

Hi Families,
Today we learned a lot! We made a glossary for our animal books. A glossary is something that tells people about some words. We learned about number charts. In phonics, we learned about consonant blends. A consonant is any letter that is not a vowel. Ours all have the letter r in them like brown or cry. We made number chart puzzles at the end of math.

Magnificent Tuesday - December 8, 2015
Hi families,
Today we did our phonics sentences for morning work. We are doing -ew, -ue, and -ui words this week, they say "ooh." Then we went to the rug for morning meeting. We have been in school for sixty-four days. In writing, we worked our information books. We wrote about different kinds of our animals. First, we did dolphins as a class. Then I learned about different kinds of foxes -- the gray fox and the swift fox. In reading, we learned about how characters feelings change, like a roller coaster. We read Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse. Her feelings went from happy to sad to guilty to happy again. We also provided evidence from the text to show how we could tell her feelings changed. The math work was very hard today. We were comparing numbers but they were not all written in standard form. Some were written in expanded form and word form. Stewie the elf was sitting on the sink today.
