Fantastic Finish!

Today we concluded our week on a very strong note. We all learned and worked very hard to finish the first quarter of our school year.
Bible-Today we reviewed the Judges Unit that the students studied last year and we will be moving on to look at using references, concordances, footnotes and other useful tools provided in our Bibles to guide us in our studies. The New Testament Bible Books Quiz is on Friday, Nov. 4
Science- Today Mr. Bird returned and reviewed the Unit 1 Science Tests with the students. They all did very well and we are happy with their knowledge of solids liquids and gases. Next week we will begin a new unit which focuses on Trash and Recycling.
Math- Today we continued our investigation of Number Stories and Sentences. We determined if number stories were True, False, or if the problems were not number stories at all. MB & SL 3.9 are due on Tuesday, Nov. 1
Literacy- Today many of our students had the privilege of sharing either their Simile story or a previously written story with the class. Mr. Bird and I were very impressed with the Similies that the students have used in their stories. We Took our Unit 7 Spelling Skills and Words Test and we did some slate work related to reviewing what we have learned about verbs so far in our Unit. We will continue our Folktale Unit on Monday.
 
Social Studies- Today we did not get to Social Studies, but we will continue next week to look at the Explorers who came to Michigan. Then mid-week we will begin a group project related to explorers.

Finally we finished off the day and the quarter by playing a friendly game of Jeopardy which Mr. Bird lead and guided. The students really enjoyed this!
