We started the day with a "practice" re-test of the grammar (parts of speech) test we did last week. We we reviewed the answers we broke down the sentences in Part 2 for extra practice - we won't do that on the real test. Tomorrow we will have the real test so please study.
After recess we completed the math assessments. Three students have more work to do so we'll arrange a quiet space for them to work next class.
After lunch we completed our rubrics activity using paper airplanes to understand how this for of assessment works.
We ended the day with a short session of "camouflage" behind the school.
I was unsatisfied with the number of times I had to wait for the class's attention while some chose to hold side conversations. I'd like to have a talking circle tomorrow after lunch to address this issue.
Thank you to the many parents who were able to come to the school tonight. If anyone who was unable to come would like to meet me, or would like to discuss his or her child's year, please feel free to arrange to see me at a time that is more convenient. My e-mail address is at the top of the blog.
As always - try to read a few pages from the novel.
