Long I Spiders!

Greetings! What an absolute gorgeous day it was! It was nice to feel the warmth again before the cold air arrives. The students really enjoyed the weather today at recess. 

In Religion class today we wrapped up our study of the church seasons. We again reviewed each one and the colors associated with each season. We decorated a poster with the different seasons on it. 

During Language Arts class, we reviewed long i words. We practiced reading them by reading our decodable reader. We then created long i spiders. On each leg, we wrote a long i word. Here is a picture: 

We then talked about the author's purpose for writing a story. We also discussed how to write special titles. Finally, we wrote about a haunted house. We used our senses to describe what we see, hear, smell, and touch in a haunted house. 

In Math class today, we used a balance to determine the weight of various objects. We used pennies to balance the scale when measuring a crayon, pencil, eraser, and marker. 

Just a reminder that tomorrow is our All Saints' Prayer Service. The prayer service begins at 1:00 in the church. Because of the prayer service, we will not have gym class. Students are to wear their dress shoes tomorrow.
