Monday

Wow, we had a lot to do today!

We read a book by Angela Johnson called wind flyer and wrote another book review as a class. The book touches on the existence of the Tuskegee Airmen from WWII, and the students made insightful inferences about it.

We also talked about rereading one's writing and thinking hard about "THE BIG IDEA." What is that that the author wants the reader to know?

Students played "Copy Tiles" and worked with mirrors to build symmetrical shapes.

We talked more about the impact of tobacco and alcohol on the body. We also talked about the difference between medications and drugs.

The rain seems to be back. I'll keep my fingers crossed for sun later in the week.
