Thursday - December 17

Today students finished the math BAs during math time.  

In readers' workshop, we read a book called Uncle Jed's Barber Shop.  Students learned about multiple layers of meaning.  Although Uncle Jed really wanted to save up to build a barbershop, he ultimately just wanted to help other people. We learned many times authors are teaching us ideas about how to live our lives.

In writers' workshop, we are finishing up our narrative writing unit with a mini-unit on Mysteries.  Students learned about different ways to add clues to their writing so the reader can figure how who committed the crime.

In science, student reviewed using a jeopardy review game.

Homework:
- 30 minutes of reading
- study for science

Reminder:
- School is in session December 21st and 22nd
- We are going to watch a movie December 22nd in the afternoon
