Welcome to Wednesday,

We have had a busy day here in Room 80.  Lots are going on and we have a lot on the go.

This morning we were so focused during Daily 5 that, at times, you could hear a pin drop... quiet as a mouse...thats a bit of a hint for what came later.  While some of us gathered together in our guided reading groups, others continued with stories that we are writing and some fresh books from the library.

Mr. Demman shared more techniques for writing.  We talked about similies, we made some up, and had a chuckle about the ones Mr. Demman found that didn't seem to work out so well.

This afternoon, we started off with math were we looked at strategies for 2 digit by 1 digit multiplication.  During our Math Daily 3, a few of our friends cleverly created a NEW multiplication math game that we are sure will become quite popular.


Today was our first day of Good Guys and Girl Power.

In Good Guys we talked about Keeping it Real! - embracing the qualities about ourselves that we cannot change and feeling good about who we are and who we are becoming.

We were lucky to have dance again today.  In class we really got our boogie on!
