Day 18 - Farmers

Welcome back from the weekend! This morning in class it was like every other morning. We came in unpacked, did calendar math, and went to specialist. We had PE today. In PE we did some tests. We did sit-up tests and the hang test. We did rotations and what we could do in each rotation was, sit up test, hang test, and basketball. We did rotations and everyone finished the tests and we got a lot done. So after we did that we went back up to our classroom. In class we did math and learned how to add and compare fractions. Mr. Steele showed us some good techniques to do those things. We actually learned a lot. By the time we were done with math it was break! So at break everyone chilled out and talked about many things.

Then we did science. We are moving onto the next section in science. Before we moved onto that we did one more final assessment test sort of thing. That is a part of our grade and it needs to be really nice and detailed. So everyone worked hard to get down the question, procedure, and variables. So then by the time we were done with that it was lunch time. So everyone went to recess then lunch.

When we came back to class we did social studies. In social studies we finished the first chapter. Then we moved onto the second chapter. In that chapter we learned about more of the Stone Age. We only read a little and then filled out a paper about how things we have now are way different from a while ago. Then we got a test on the story we recently read from Houghton Mifflin and that story was called, Passage to Freedom. In this story it talks about how a man who had some power helped the Jewish people during the war and when the Nazis were coming. Then when we were done with that test we put it on Mr. Steele’s desk and moved onto Bridge to Terabithia. What happened in this chapter was Leslie died. She went to Terabithia and swung across the rope and it broke. She fell and probably hit her head and drowned. Then Jess just was in denial and didn’t believe that she was dead. Once we finished reading we did some more of our story writing. We had to draw a picture about a memorable moment. After we did that it was job time. So we did jobs and then did pack stack and vac. That was the end of Monday!
