Today in class we did some catching up and we worked on our online tools as well. We started it all with a sharing circle and the students all shared their favourite part of the week. Mine was that the students were all so well behaved for our wonderful substitute this week and got so much work done while Mme was away. :)
To wrap up the week, we did some addition practice in math today, which we followed up with online work in Mathletics. The students are progressing well. Unfortunately, we did not get to go cover our problem of the week, but we will do so Monday morning right after Sharing Circle. As such, we will not have a new problem posted.
In French we also did Raz Kids where most of the students finished their french assignments and we continued to read Le Petit Prince. We are taking it slow as we need to build some understanding of the story. Le test sur "Avoir" et "Etre" has been postponed to next week.
In Raz-Kids, I promised the students that when they reach 250,000 stars as a class, we can choose a movie to watch in class. Well, I may have set the bar too low. We have some very dedicated readers in the class and the class has over 226,000 stars already. :) Next target will need to be set much higher :).
In the afternoon we continued with a bit more Raz-Kids as due to morning gym we only had 15 minutes in the morning which we then followed-up with the reading of Wonder. Our group responsible for the worms also checked out how they were doing and gave them some additional moisture. In terms of food, they were doing still quite well.
We wrapped up the day with Gym again and by cleaning our desks. Some are very good at it, while others need to practice a bit more :).
Next week will be a fun and a short week. The students are off Nov 1st and 2nd (Thursday and Friday) after Halloween. Hopefully the super long weekend will give them enough time to work through all the sugar they will collect on Halloween. They are all very excited already :).
