Homework:
Math sheet 30 or TTM
Read for 20 minutes
For girls' and boys' basketball I will need notes to allow your child to stay or go to BNML until practice. One note can work for all season.
There is school next Monday and the students will be off from Tuesday to Friday.
If you can, please send in 2 cans of Cranberry Sauce to donate to our food shelf by Thursday. A note went home last week explaining this.
The students are busy creating their PSA for school composting. They are using the ipads all around the school to create imovies. We worked hard to be able to work in different areas of the school and be responsible. Those 6 weeks at the beginning of the year when I did a lot of talking and directing have paid off! The students are managing their learning and doing wonderfully!

Homework:
Math - TTM or sheet 28
Read for 20 minutes or work on your genre packet that goes with your book. Working on the genre packet counts as reading.
For the past many years I have watch CNN Student News with my classes. It is a 10 minute news program that focuses on international, national, and interesting news' items. Carl Azuz is the host and he is very funny. This year it has become a bit more serious with what is going on in the world with terrorism, so we don't watch it everyday. I check the program's highlights ahead of time. A common question of the day is, "Are we watching CNN today?" I am including the link in case you want to check it out when you have some time.

November 10th
So Bobbi Flack came back in today to continue her work on Public Service Announcements. These videos will be longer than the typical PSA, but we are following the criteria for a PSA. The following videos show her visits from last Thursday and today. The last two videos show the students using the ipads to take practice shots of the hands and eyes. They also will practice with over the should and full body shots. A storyboard will be created that will fit the target audience. Tomorrow we go to St. Albans for the Veterans' Day Celebration and I will post video from the parade and service.

Today in math we started dividing fractions by fractions. The students still need to create a model first and then check their work by multiplying by the reciprocal. Math assessments from last Thursday will go home tomorrow for a signature. I will continue to work on these concepts during FLEX/intervention time.
We conferenced with our peers today on our narrative writing. Here is video showing what conferences look like.
