Soil and Fossil Test Tomorrow!!

Today in science we created a study guide for the soil and fossil test that we will take in class tomorrow.  Please make sure your child studies this tonight as part of their homework.  I will do a small review before the test tomorrow and take any questions they need to ask.

Morning Journal:  What is your favorite type of breakfast food and why?

Writing Workshop:  We were completing the school writing prompt of: A time you had fun with a friend.

Reading Workshop:  We did not do reading workshop today, due to late start day and completing the school writing prompt.

Math Workshop:  We reviewed over basic addition problems like: 8+7=___.  We reviewed that they numbers that you add are called addends and the answer is called a sum.  I introduced estimating sums, which is basically just rounding the two addends and then adding up the rounded numbers to get your estimate.

**School pictures are next week on October 16th.  You must send in your order form on this day.
