3rd Grade Concert

Writer's Workshop: After rereading Jan Brett's The Mitten we brainstormed and did interactive writing of some of the characters in the story.

Math: Today the students completed their Math Assessment for measurement and comparison. Doing a grab and record, then cutting strips and putting them in order from shortest to longest.

3rd Grade Concert: We attended the 3rd grade concert today, it was GREAT! They have the luxury of having a music instructor from Starting Arts to orchestrate their performance. The students were a great and entertained audience.

Computer Lab: Today we worked in a new program, Student Writing Center. Through step by step instruction, kids selected a border, typed their names and added a graphic before printing their sign. Some need work with the concept of "double-clicking" but for the most part, kids were able to figure the program out and i look forward to them getting more creative as we continue to work in it.

Literacy: We completed two more pages in our "Mittens" book - Mittens with squares. and Mittens with rainbows.
