Friday, Feb. 1, 2019


Highlights
On Monday, Mrs. Paull read “The Recess Queen” by Alexis O’Neill, which is a story about a girl called Mean Jean.  We had a class discussion about the differences between someone being rude, someone being mean, and someone who is a bully.  We also talked about strategies to deal with problems (e.g., tell the person to stop, go to an adult for help).

We finished our Arctic animal presentations on Google Slides.

In Math, we have continued to work on subtraction.

On Thursday, we worked with author Cathy Beveridge.  We learned about aspects of legends and each student started planning their own legend about an Arctic animal using a story organizer.  Ms. Beveridge will continue to work with us next Friday, Feb. 8.   

We read the novel “Tonight on the Titanic” by Mary Pope Osborne.
