First 2011-2012 Class Newsletter By Robert And Jalyn
we had indoor recces one day.
Writing: In writing, we have been working on paragraph writing. The class has been given a prompt “The worst vacation ever would be...” we have to write it on an outline, then we type it on pages. After that we have to paste it to the blog and comment on others work. Our next prompt is “If I could be a cool super-hero to be would be ...”
Reading: In Reading on Monday we picked an animal in the rain-forest to research. Then we had to write down why we would want to be that animal for a day and draw it. Then we shared it with the class. On Wednesday we started reading group. We are reading a book called powwow in the p.m reading. In a.m reading they are reading about the solar system.
Music: In music we have been working on making an uploaded twinkle twinkle little star sound awesome on garageband. We have to make it into A.B.A form. Both the A parts have to be the same instrument and the B part must be different. Then we sang a Justin Beiber song, reviewed how to read music and danced to double dream hands.
Tech: We have been working on web literacy. We have talked about what a url is. We have also learned how to use a Prezi. We also learned how to evaluate web sites to tell if they are reliable.
Morning work...
In morning work, we answered the question everyday. We have worked on our Prezis and jobs. Then we do morning meeting. Every Thursday the advanced band has band.
Kinder Buddies: This week was the first week with our kinder buddies. We taught them to use computers and we read to them on and off the computer.
Math: In math we have been working on adding and subtracting negative and positive numbers. One way to add negative and positive numbers is o find the absolute value. There is also a way to add negative numbers together. We learned that you have to add the negative numbers like they are positive and when you get the answer you add the negative sign. Finally, we reviewed how to add positive numbers.
Library:In library we signed out books and we used Sentios. We took a test on them to see what we knew. We also did this cool alphabetical sheet! We had to put the subjects in A,B,C order.
Gym: In gym we started our soccer unit. We played three games they were called Coconut, Traffic Jam, and more games like that We also played a game were we got a number and when Mrs. Gross called our number we would run up to the ball (which was in the middle) and tried to make a goal.
