BIG BUMMER! I
recorded the students during one of our brain breaks during writing, but
YouTube muted the music. For this brain break, I turn on Prince’s “Baby You’re
a Star” and give one student a red star. Everyone stops what they are doing and
follows the “star’s” dance moves. Every 8-16 counts the student passes the star
to another student. When the music stops, the students stop and get back to
what they were previously working on. THEY LOVE IT! Here is the link to the video:
Students have been
working really hard on identifying verbs in their books and writing. Most of
them have really caught on. Spelling tests went home today—SUCCESS! New lists
will be sent home tomorrow.
Today we finished
Unit 3 in math. I will correct them and send them home next week. Tomorrow we
will begin Unit 4 and will be able to finish it up before winter break.
Thank you to all who
have contacted me about how to help one of our students who lost their home to
a fire. We are excited to begin our coin drive next week and have already received
some donations. The family is very grateful for all of the support.
