Happy Mustache Monday! This morning we shared our feelings and it was exciting to hear all about how everyone was feeling this morning and about the weekend! We had art right away this morning and learned all about color value. We started reading with our spelling pretest and our spelling concept for this week is long -o and -i, which we will be spending a lot of time practicing and understanding throughout the week. In reading we discussed our unit question " How do we achieve common ground?" and then had a great conversation with our weekly question" What brings people together?" Oh boy do these 5th graders have some excellent background knowledge! GREAT conversation!! Our vocabulary we discussed and practiced with today was cooperate, mentor, famine, and culture, which all have a lot in common. We are starting a new reading series so we are transitioning into all the parts of it slowly : )! For math we reviewed place value billions to thousandths and then worked on place value patterns:
3 ten thousands (or 3 X 10,000)
30 thousands (or 30 X 1,000)
300 hundreds (or 300 X 100)
3,000 tens (or 3,000 X 10)
30,000 one (or 3,000 X 1)
We ended the day with Health Enhancement! Remember that tomorrow from 6-7 is open house and I look forward to seeing and meeting everyone!
