Today went well, unless you count everyone saying they wish they had one more day of fall breakJ
In spelling we started a new unit and used them to replace words in sentences and found the correct ones using context clues in a story.
In language we worked on editing, not to be confused with revision. Editing is making sure the mechanics of a piece are correct. Revision is improving a piece. For example:
The day was Monday. It was cloudy. We had to stay inside.
Now that is a piece of writing that is written correctly. But I don’t think any of us would want to read a book filled with such sentences.
In math we divided decimals by whole numbers. Some had to come in and finish their 9 weeks test. I didn’t feel it fair to them, as 45 minutes was not enough time for many to finish his/her test, so I had them come in at lunch.
Have a great Monday!
