Today we all rushed into the school to start the exciting day. We started the day out with finishing one-point perspective art work from yesterday. Next, we had math. In class we did pages 265, 266, and 267. For our homework we had Math Boxes 8.5 and Study Link 8.5. We had a jolly time doing our homework today! It was mostly a review of what we did today, which was learn about finding fractions of fractions. Futhermore, we had music. We sang a song called "Shake It Up." We added percussion instruments to it so it would make the song sound more exciting! In addition, we had WART (Writing and Reading Time). We had to do our reading groups. I read Pinky Pye. The other groups read Westing Game, Dogs Don't Tell Jokes, and Castle In The Attic. After lunch and recess we had spelling. For spelling we had to put our spelling words into SpellIt. On SpellIt we can do word jumble, a test, and practice. For word jumble we have to find out what word it is after the Palm mixes the letters up. For the test we have to take a test which is similar to the practice but keep score. After that, we had Social Studies. For Social studies Mr. Vincent made a picture essay of the class. Mostly of Taylor H. because he was suppose to be the star of the show. He was making the picture show because he is teaching a class about Handhelds for 4th and 5th graders in Michigan. Finally, it was the end of the day and we had time to play a game of 20 questions. We barely had enough time to guess the object in the room. It was the cream-colored lamp shade! We all rushed out of school to go home and do all of our homework. Unless we didn't have homework, then I would go out and play in the rain with my friends. Back
