Tuesday, Nov. 9th

Today in class we read "The Legend of the Indian Paintbrush"  we made a strory map to summarize what happened and why the book was written.  We will be making a story map of the next 3 legends we read and then we will be making our OWN story map for our OWN legends!  They kids are getting familiar with how to plan out a "good story" so that they will be ready on Monday to start their own stories.
In math tomorrow we will be playing a game that helped us learn more about giving change for a dollar.  Some students will be playing a more advanced version of this game with other amounts that were a bit more tricky.  Some students who have mastered this skill already got to go to the enrichment group with Mrs. Mouton today!  She will be visiting us every Tuesday and Thursday for enrichment for those who have mastered certain skills.  She will also be helping us on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday by working with students who need re-teaching or extra time to learn a concept.  The kids LOVE going with Mrs. Mouton- they get so excited when they find out who gets to go that day :)
In Social Studies we added two new words to our Vocab book: Life and Justice.
