Thursday 9/8 in C6

Hi Families, I have added a few new posts to the blog as well as a wish list to your left. Please check these out and if you have extra resources in any of the areas that you are willing to contribute to our class, that would be greatly appreciated! Our Day: Today we started with filling in our RAH chart and voting on a goal of daily minutes to be read by the class. Students are required to read 30 min/day which would total 840 min/day as a class. However last year with 25 students we were exceeding our goal of 1200 min/day as a class. The class discussed and voted on making our goal 1250 min/day for September. Today we read 1085 minutes as a class so we have some catching up to do. Last year as a class we read 14,976 min as a class in September and 40,486 min in May. Each month we increased our minutes. With this new goal we should be just a little under May's goal. So please encourage students to read each night and log their minutes and get your initials...Thank you. * Next we had PE *Then we discussed how to find a "Good Fit Book" and read for 20 min. of uninterrupted reading time * We had our Recess/Lunch * In math we used our knowledge of area to make "Ladybug dream house blueprints" * Then we decorated our writing journals * We discussed this blog * There was a fire drill * Finally we had Choir and non choir students finished some classwork Thank you for taking the time to read the blog and help out where you can. Enjoy the heat! Sincerely, Kyle
