Blog 2-3-15

Hello everyone!  Hope you have had a good day.

Resource Day today!  

Update:  On Friday both 5th grade classes met to discuss behavior.  We introduced to the students that we will each have a class list of the whole 5th grade for our classrooms. It will act as a behavior log to make sure everyone is on task and are doing what they are supposed to be doing at all times. The first misbehavior is a verbal warning, 2nd they get a check next to their name, 3rd they receive another check. If we have to warn them again of something for the 4th time, it will be a call home. We truly don't anticipate having to do check marks, but if necessary we will. If a student makes it 2 weeks with no checks next to their name in EITHER classes, there will be a reward for him/her. Ms. Ray & I both think this will be a great incentive for the kids to stay on task and try their hardest, especially since Terra Nova is just around the corner :).

Today was resource day.  The kids did a wonderful job transitioning between classes and they are working really hard to not get any warnings.  They are such a great group of students.  I am blessed to be able to work with them each day.

Reading Logs:  We are getting the weekly reading log reports again.  I am noticing some students are not getting their time logged in.  If they do not know how to do this, please have them ask.  It is a grade and we are trying for  a 100% reward.  They need to get their time logged in before Friday morning.

Tonight: students need to read for 30 min. then they need to write 5 inferences about what they read and turn in for a grade on Wednesday.

Science:  This test was moved to Friday as we needed to do Governor's Cup testing on Monday and did not get to review.

Religion: Unit 1 Family Life test Friday.  Wrkbk p. 19-20 due Wednesday

Social Studies: guided notes need to be printed off edmodo

Math:  Finish Simple Solutions 1 and 2, due Wednesday
