October 29

Here is our day from our guest blogger, Mya!

Today in science, we learned about the sun. It is the closest star to Earth. It gives energy to all the other planets in our solar system!

We also learned multiplication strategies. And practiced word problems using them. We got to take turns teaching the class what strategies we used to solve problems.

In writer's workshop, we worked on our spooky stories. We learned ways to grab the reader's attention by using exciting beginnings.

In reading, we learned about inferring. We talked about how we can use text clues and our schema to infer. We did a fun group project too! We all got four items from Mrs. Petrauskas' purse and we had to infer things about her. We call these groups "HOT groups." This stands for Higher Order Thinking.

We also had music. We did a song with instruments and learned to square dance.
