Day 57 - Welcome Back

We are finally back, to school from our long thanksgiving break. It was sort of unexpected because of the snow. So this morning we came in and got our stuff unpacked. We were getting everything back on track again. So we did our calendar math and then at 9:04 we went to PE. In PE we did bowling again. We actually did bowling bingo. How to play bowling bingo is you get a bingo card. You bowl and then however many pins you knock down, is the number you mark off. If you don’t get a strike then you go a second time. If you were to knock down a 6 and a 3, then you cross out six and three. Or you could cross out the sum of the two. When you get numbers in a row or going horizontally or vertically then that is a bingo. So at 9:45, Mr. Steele was at the door ready to take us to our class. When we got back to class we went into today’s lesson in math. Today’s lesson was about how to divide fractions. Mr. Steele showed us a good way on how to do it. We worked on some of that until it was time to have break.

At break we opened the wall and saw all of our friends. We didn’t have snack until after so we just hung out and talked. When break was over we said bye to our friends and then closed the wall. Then we did science. Everyone got their own little flower and a long piece of packing tape. We put the tape sticky side up. We stuck certain important parts of the flower to the tape. Then we flipped the tape over onto a piece of paper. You would have to push it down just to make sure it stuck well enough. That’s all we did in science, plus a paper on the flower that we dissected. Then the bell rang for lunch.

We had to stay in 8 minutes extra because that’s how much time we owed. When the timer went off for us, we went outside to recess. Then lunch also. After we came back from lunch, we did social studies. In social studies we got an end of the unit quiz. By the time we finished the quiz it was about 2:30! We only had a full hour left of the day! We got to watch some videos for Shakespeare so we are sort of prepared for this coming Thursday at the play. When those videos were done, it was 3:00. Then we talked about the difference between opinion and fact. It sort of tied into writing because we might be writing an essay soon that is a persuasive essay. We were going to have to use facts and opinions in it. Then it was time for jobs. We did jobs and then pack stack and vac. Then we went home.
